Google CFO Calls Glass A Case Where The Company Needed To “Pause” And “Reset”


Google's Chief Financial Officer Patrick Pichette wasn't excessively idealistic about the eventual fate of Google Glass on today's Google profit call for Q4 2014. The official took sooner or later to highlight the task as an illustration of when Google is eager to make a stride back and reexamine something that isn't working out, actually when they've made an impressive interest in the tech.

"At the point when groups aren't ready to [leap] obstacles, yet we think there's still a great deal of make a guarantee to we, may request that they take a stop and take the time to reset their system, as we as of late did on account of Glass," Pichette said. "[a]nd in those circumstances where ventures don't have the effect we trust for, we do take the extreme calls, we settle on the choice to drop them, and you've seen us do this consistently."

Google discontinued the Glass Explorer program over on January 19, in the wake of publishing it would close down and be reassigned to Tony Fadell's purchaser fittings division inside the organization. Google is as yet swaying engineers to create for the stage, and a repositioning under Fadell additionally doesn't demonstrate a conclusiveness of its destiny, yet Pichette's remarks today are the most solid articulation we've heard on the Glass program's result from a top official, and they absolutely don't propose an inescapable shopper dispatch.

Glass may live on as something else, yet Pichette's announcements today recommend we may not perceive the structure it takes when it does inevitably re-rise.
