Intel gives Google Glass a needed boost

Just weeks after speculation surfaced that Google was abandoning Glass, theWall Street Journal reported Sunday that Intel Corp. is going to supply chips for the wearable device.

If true, it's another sign of life for Google Glass.

"Presumably, Intel would not get involved if Glass was a dying product," said Scott Strawn, an analyst with IDC. "The really positive indication is if this comes along with an intention [by Intel] to invest and make new technologies that will solve a lot of the problems associated with Glass. That would be meaningful."

The Journal, citing unnamed sources, reported that Texas Instruments Inc., which made the processor for the Glass prototype, is out and Intel is in. Intel plans to push Glass into vertical industries like healthcare networks and manufacturers.

Google did not respond to a request for comment. A spokeswoman for Intel would only say, "We work closely with Google across a number of areas, but we are not commenting on speculation."
