Vuzix Confirms Intel Bid for Internet-Connected Eyewear



(Digital Marketing Agency, thesnsgroup.com)- New York-based Vuzix Corporation reveals that it has recently received Intel Corp’s $24.8 million for accelerating the roll-out of internet-connected glasses as the globally renowned chipmaker is striving to be at the forefront of future trends in mobile computing and expand into new markets, including smart watches and other wearables.

Intel officials, though, are yet to comment on the matter.

According to Reuter, Intel just joined forces with Italian firm Luxottica back in December with a view to developing glasses combining top fashion brands with technology that could allow wearers to access information about their health or location.

“Intel has also teamed up with watch retailer Fossil Group and Fashion brand Opening Ceremony to develop wearable devices such as fashion bracelets with communications features and wireless charging,” the source reported.
