Alphabet Inc. 's（納斯達克股票代碼：GOOG）（納斯達克股票代碼：GOOGL）谷歌在2024年穀歌I/O會議上推出了兩副增強現實（AR）眼鏡的原型版本，這引發了人們對曾經放棄的谷歌眼鏡項目可能復興的猜測。
What Happened: The new prototype was revealed in a brief moment during a demo video for Project Astra. The glasses, with a distinctly curved nose bridge, were worn by a Google employee who then used them to ask questions and receive hands-free answers.
發生了什麼：在 Project Astra 的演示視頻中，新原型在短時間內揭曉。谷歌的一名員工佩戴了這款鼻樑明顯彎曲的眼鏡，然後他用它們來提問並獲得免提答案。
Despite the lack of official confirmation from Google, the company has not made any attempts to conceal the new prototype. The video's YouTube description explicitly states that the second part of the demo is being run on "a prototype glasses device."
儘管沒有得到谷歌的官方確認，但該公司並未試圖隱瞞新原型。該視頻的YouTube描述明確指出，該演示的第二部分是在 “原型眼鏡設備” 上運行的。

The new glasses bear a resemblance to the Project Iris prototypes, which were previously thought to be defunct. This unexpected development has led to speculation about Google's renewed interest in AR technology, especially in light of the success of Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses.

Google's previous AR prototypes had advanced to a stage where the company was planning to begin public testing in mid-2022. The emergence of these new glasses suggests that Google is still actively pursuing its AR ambitions.
