Google to sell Android-based heads-up display glasses

If you ever wanted your glasses to more than just allow you to read or reduce the glare of the sun, sources from inside Google have shared that glasses with heads up displays maybe be available this year.

What's more, the Times says that none other than Sergey Brin is a "key leader" on the project, with another being Google engineer Steve Lee, the creator of Latitude. Notably, Bilton also says that Google sees the project as an "experiment that anyone will be able to join," and that the company is not currently thinking about potential business models for the glasses, which could suggest that they may be more of a small-scale hobby than part of a major push into consumer hardware.

As much as it would be cool to have glasses like this, we are still having issues with people texting and driving.  But it would make Google Maps a lot more interesting.
