Nearly 80 percent of smartglasses will be Wi-Fi enabled by 2015, said research firm Strategy Analytics, in a Thursday release (http://prn.to/1lXcnpz). “For the smartglasses user, WiFi is a key enabler, allowing the user to upload HD video recorded on the device to video sharing services,” said Matt Wilkins, a director at Strategy Analytics. The firm predicted the number of Wi-Fi-enabled smartglasses will jump from 1.2 million in 2014 to 4 million in 2015, mostly driven by Google devices. “We have to think Samsung and Apple are also eyeing the segment and will be potential long-term rivals,” he said.
