Read our privacy policy A new update for Google Glass has just rolled out, to the surprise of the entire technology community. Google Glass has just received its first update since 2014. First spotted by the Verge, the update includes bug fixes and performance improvements, and adds Bluetooth input device support so you can hook a mouse or keyboard up to it. However, newer headsets like the HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, Hololens and Snapchat Spectacles are attracting positive mainstream attention, and Google may feel that Google Glass was a little ahead of its time, and that people’s perception of it could be different now.
