Real Augmented Reality Google Goggles In Prototype Stage?

There have been whispers in the past of augmented reality goggles or glasses, but generally we have been able to dismiss them as exaggerations or concepts. The technology, while it isn't unrealistic, simply isn't quite there yet. Apparently that hasn't stopped Google: a new report is appearing corroborating earlier ones that they are working on a pair of augmented reality glasses. They'd piggyback on your phone's connection and overlay information like directions, news, and so on. Whether you think it's a good idea or not, this kind of thing is going to come eventually, so it's natural that Google would want to start girding itself for the approaching augmented glasses wars of 20XX.
