- Google (GOOG +0.3%, GOOGL +0.4%) has acquired North, maker of computer interfaces and smart glasses.
- Terms weren't disclosed.
- Google says the acquisition will support its striving toward "ambient computing," when devices work together and "hepfulness is all around you."
- The company will join a Google team based in Kitchener-Waterloo, Canada (North's hometown).
- North was founded in 2012. In its own post it notes a product update alongside the acquisition: "We are winding down Focals 1.0 and we will not be shipping Focals 2.0, but we hope you will continue the journey with us as we start this next chapter."
