Luxottica to Bring Google Glass to Wider Market

Google has teamed up with Ray-Ban maker Luxottica in a bid to turn its internet-connected Glass spectacles into a widely available, stylish consumer product. In a statement on Monday, Luxottica, the world's biggest eyewear maker, said it had agreed to design, develop and distribute Glass eyewear, which so far has only been available as an expensive prototype in the U.S. Google Glass is a small stamp-sized screen attached to a pair of spectacle frames. It can record video, access email and retrieve information from the web by connecting wirelessly to a user's cell phone.
