I believe i-glass by Apple will appear too in competition with Google glass. Market side Weakness
Market Survey • Survey Monkey Audience • 38%of Americans would like to buy a smartwatch, compared to 10% for glasses. • Within five years62% people will own a smartwatch
Weakness of Smart-glass • 1.The applications of Google glass are not maturity and the quantity of applications are also less, so if Apple wants to compete with Google, they need to develop more applications and more mature than Google.2.The staying power of battery can’t last for a long time.3.The glass is not suitable for shortsighted people.4.Voice service receiver doesn’t work very well.
