Google X Chief, Astro Teller admits that 'wearables' are tough and challenging.
Teller, in a conference in San Francisco, talked about the challenges of wearables and why putting a computing device on someone's body is 'a big ask'
Google's wearable device, Google Glass, was introduced in 2012 and since then it has been facing many complications. It's been at the center of some controversy, including being banned from some bars in the US and prohibited from movies theaters in the United Kingdom because of privacy and piracy concerns, CNET reported.
Teller said that the big challenge is making sure a wearer gets value from the device that he or she couldn't get anywhere else-like, say, from a smartphone in your pocket.
Teller lamented the challenge of getting someone to keep a computing device on his or her body is a big thing to ask for.
