HP to use Google Glass for serivce

google-glass-rachel-king-620x414For the heavier professional printers such as the T 1100 HP uses the Google Glass to deliver service.Google Glass is still alive, but just not actively in the consumer´s eye. Behind the scenes Google is working with enterprises to develop the technology further. HP is one of the development partners as I fond out during a visit to the new demo centre in Barcelona. Companies using complex machinery such as the HP rotation press will be provided with Google Glass technology. The service engineer will be on the spot wearing the smart glasses and maintenance experts from other parts of the world can follow him and give instructions via the glasses. According to a HP spokesperson Google is currently more interested in enterprise solutions for the smart glasses rather than consumer solutions.

According to Google CEO Eric Schmidt in an interview in the Wall Street journal the Google Glass is alive and well and one of the most important pillars in Google´s future. . “We ended the Explorer program and the press conflated this into us cancelling the whole project, which isn’t true. Google is about taking risks and there’s nothing about adjusting Glass that suggests we’re ending it.”
