Google has introduced privacy protection measures for its Android XR smart glasses

Google has introduced comprehensive privacy protection measures for its Android XR smart glasses, featuring a recording indicator light, automatic face blurring on the phone, and ensuring that image data used for interaction with Gemini is deleted immediately after use; users can control camera access permissions, the system regularly checks the indicator light function, and accessories that cover the indicator light are prohibited from being sold. The indicator light will turn on whenever the glasses are recording content that can be saved in some form for the user to view later. All camera footage used for Gemini will be deleted immediately after use. Users can control which applications on the Android XR glasses have the right to use the camera. Before using the smart glasses for the first time, users must agree to relevant usage rules, including not filming others without permission, not filming in sensitive locations, and not covering the recording indicator light.
