Google Glass is a follow on from previous work, and self driving cars have been a DARPA challenge for at least 8 years. They're not massively innovative except in the context of being refined to a honed product. The iPhone was innovative because it packaged existing concepts in a way that was inntuitive to use, previous smartphones (and I had many) were often the opposite of that. Apple still doesn't radically enter a product category on that regular a basis, I imagine next year or after we may see them do it again.
