Developer of Google Glass• The Google Glass also known as “Project” Glass is being

developed by Google X, which is a secret facility run by

Google.

• Google X, has also worked on other futuristic technologies in

past such as driverless cars, internet service via balloons and

many more.


What is Google Glass• Google Glass (styled "GLΛSS") is a wearable computer with

an optical head-mounted display (OHMD) that is being

developed by Google in the Project Glass research and

development project with a mission of producing a mass-

market ubiquitous computer.

• Google Glass displays information in a smartphone-like

hands-free format, that can communicate with the Internet via

natural language voice commands.


What is Google Glass• Google Glass is an attempt to free data from desktop

computers and portable devices like phones and tablets, and

place it right in front of your eyes.

• Google Glass is a camera, display, touchpad, battery and

microphone built into spectacle frames so that you can perch

a display in your field of vision, film, take pictures, search and

translate on the go.

Google Glass Commands

Technologies in Google Glass

• Wearable computing

• Ubiquitous computing

• Eye Tap technology

• Ambient intelligence


Eye Tap technology in Google Glass

• An Eye Tap technology comes in a device that is worn in front of the eye that acts as a camera to record the scene available to the eye.

• As well as a display to superimpose a computer-generated imagery on the original scene available to the eye.


Ambient intelligence in Google Glass• In computing, ambient intelligence

(AmI) refers to electronic environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people.

• In an ambient intelligence world, devices work in concert to support people in carrying out their everyday life activities, tasks and rituals in an easy, natural way using information and intelligence that is hidden in the network connecting these devices.


Wearable Computing in GoogleGlass

• Wearable computers,

also known as body-

borne computers are

miniature electronic

devices that are worn

by the bearer under,

with or on top of

clothing.


Ubiquitous computing in GoogleGlass

• Ubiquitous computing (ubicomp) is an advanced computing concept where computing is made to appear everywhere and anywhere.

• In contrast to desktop computing, ubiquitous computing comes in a very small components using any device, in any location, and in any format.


What Google Glass can do1) It can take Pictures.

2) It an record videos.

3) It can do voice calls.

4) It can hangout with person/Google+ circle.

5) It can navigate directions on the go.

6) It can send the messages.

7) It can give flight details.

8) It can give headlines.

9) It can give weather updates.

10) Easy sharing.


How Google Glass works• Powered by voice control — so no keyboards — Google Glass overlay the world

you see around you with related information beamed onto your retina by a prism that receives from a tiny projector inside the lens. You see both the physical world and all relevant data associated with it, the kind of data that right now.

• Google Glass contains the fundamental bits of any computer, including a CPU, sensors such as GPS, speakers, microphone and battery, to which are added a tiny projector and a prism that redirects the light onto your retina.

• Each component is neatly embedded in the frame. To keep the device as light as possible, most of the processing will actually take place in the cloud (like it does with Apple’s Siri), so a good mobile broadband signal is essential.

• With Google Glasses, the technology disappears from in front of you and you get data and applications in the context of what you’re doing or what you’re looking at.


How Google Glass works


Google Glass introduces an entirely new way of

computing, with a simple, voice-driven user interface that

strips away complexity and makes a number of

tasks much more intuitive. Just wear the glass and the glass is

active for you.


Start tap

You won’t have to find the weather app and click on it to get a report.

Weather apps for Google Glass will know when you’re looking up at the clouds and provide you with an instant weather report.

Want to know Weather right now??

After you issue the order “OK Glass”, you can instruct the glasses to do something specific by saying something like “take a picture”. That’s it. There’s no fumbling around looking for the camera icon.


Take a picture

Same goes with video. With Google Glass, you can record what you see without moving a finger. Just say “Ok Glass…record a video”


Record video

Now this is what we call serious sharing —actually sharing what you see with your friends. Just say “Ok glass…Share on hangout”


Share what u see

Lost? No problem, you have your very own super GPS navigating device to guide you along in the right direction. Just “OK Glass…Get directions to Mehranghar Fort”


Find your way

Google Glass will able to read and translate any text you see, which makes them an absolute boon for travellers.

For travellers, Google Glass will be a revolution, going a long way to removing language barriers and making travelling easy.


Translate

One of the key features of Google Glass is their awareness of where you are and what you’re looking at, at all times. It means they can anticipate your needs and flash up information that’s going to be relevant to you.

This is what the Google Now search engine available on the latest Android smartphones as well as on the iPhone, tries to do.


Your info butler

Let’s have a look, how simplicity works


ConclusionLast but not the least, I would like to say this technology is so good and user-friendly which can give us a simplest way to communicate over a network and a very handy tool to get

information on the go. In my opinion, this future device is best suited for everyone and everywhere and I am sure that these

devices can be very useful for physically challenged people too.

However, they’ll do a lot more than that. In fact, they change the game completely. At this stage, Google is expected to formally

release Google Glass either later this year or in early 2014.
