To keep up with competition, the [Olympus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camera-shutter) MEG 4.0 glasses were developed. The Bluetooth-enabled specs have a built-in display similar to the recent release of glasses by [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-glasses-1). The glasses have an eight-hour battery life and accelerometer.

There is no word yet as to when either of these inventions will be available to the public. When they do become available, many will find their lives made easier by this invention. With technology in constant development, there devices will become more and more integrated into everyday life. For some this is a welcome process, while others tend to reject this merging and pervasiveness of technology.
