What are smart glasses?

Smart glasses are wearable devices that look like regular spectacles but incorporate technology to offer features like audio, cameras, and internet connectivity. The Apple Glass, as mentioned in the story, is expected to focus on these smart features without a visual display, aiming for a more subtle integration into daily life compared to bulkier virtual reality headsets.
