EXPLAINED: Googles latest eyewear can now order you an uber ride | Rare Historical Photos

Google has lifted the veil on a new generation of smart eyewear — a fashion‑forward collaboration with Gentle Monster and Warby Parker that stitches Gemini AI into everyday frames: discreet audio glasses and display glasses.

Built on the Android XR platform with Samsung and Qualcomm, the collection, unveiled at the Google I/O 2026 in California, aims to marry runway polish with practical, always‑on artificial intelligence (AI) for wearers from morning to night.

The collection will launch in two versions: audio glasses and display glasses. The audio glasses deliver spoken assistance through in‑frame speakers, while the display glasses project directions, translations and notifications onto the lenses for a truly hands‑free, heads‑up experience.
