Glass was an optical head-mounted display developed by Google to produce a universal wearable computer. It allowed hands-free access to information and communication through voice commands. However, Glass faced criticism around issues of privacy, safety, and social interactions due to its camera and recording capabilities. It was also expensive and had technical limitations. As a result, Google halted consumer sales of Glass in 2015 due to lack of demand.
