Google Glass With a Built-In Projector Gets Patented

Google Glass doesn’t really seem to be a priority for Google these days as the company moves forward with Android Wear, Android and Chrome products while seemingly leaving the headset device behind. But a new patent from the Internet giant suggests Google could be working on an updated version of the heads-up-display that features a built-in projector.

The patent, which was filed in April 2013 and published Thursday, describes a “head-mounted display including integrated projector.” Accompanying images suggest it could be an updated or modified version of Google Glass with a small projector slapped onto the side. The patent goes on to explain the main purpose of the new hardware could be for sharing information with people around you.
