Google is ready to restart its Glass project from scratch, as per The New York Times. According to reports sales of the controversial product "Google Glass" were stand still in January and development of the prototype was also been stopped.
The Glass development is now being driven by former Apple gadget designer Tony Fadell, who is ready to start over the project from scratch. The new version will be developed internally and it won't be available in market until and unless it will become perfect.
Generally the product performance earlier was poor and not much successful. It was first launched in 2011 but it made the big impact in mid-2012 when the company demonstrated it at its developers' conference using skydivers and stunt cyclists.
The report shows that many key researchers forced to leave as this project gained the controversies and gave rise to tensions among development team.
Mr. Fadell helped in bringing Apple's iPod and other gadgets to market. He is now controlling the glass project and looking forward to launching it till the time it will get perfect. He became the employee of Google last year when the search giant bought his home automation company Nest.
This time Google Glass project will take long time because of the poor performance of the earlier versions. It is said that "There is very little that Glass does well, so with a reboot, there isn't much to currently from from".
To be precise, don't expect a new version of Google Glass any time soon.
