More Facewear Ships, but Not From Google

May 7, 2014 By Dan Rosenbaum

moverioNow there are two commercial wearable glasses on the market. Epson has just shipped its Moverio smart glasses, which first saw the light of day at CES in January, for $700. (Vuzix was the first. Google still isn’t saying when Glass will actually ship to the general market.)

The Wall Street Journal has a hands-on. The Moverio isn’t something you’d want to strap on and wear through your day; like the Vuzix visor, it’s an enterprise-oriented device.)

We still think it’s interesting that Epson, a very old tech brand best-remembered by graybeards as a dominant player in the dot-matrix printer and cash-register businesses, is showing up in the wearables space.
