Gemini smartglasses

Google and Samsung launched Gemini smartglasses with Warby Parker and Gentle Monster, open for preorder from $395 and shipping December 10.

These are the first Gemini glasses, built by Google, Samsung and the eyewear brands, with Samsung providing the hardware and Google the software. They have no lens display, and users talk to Gemini by voice or through a 12 MP camera. Google says faces are redacted before video is processed, images are not saved to Gemini history or used for training, and live streaming from the glasses is not allowed.
