The Good And Bad Stuff About Google Glass
(My Opinion)
According to Wikipedia
Google Glass is a "wearable" computer
with a head-mounted display
With Google Glass you can
● Look up the web (surf the internet)● Take photos● Record videos● Get access to maps● Hang outetc.
Before talking about my opinion
let's take a brief look at the
specifications and capability of the device!
Glass comes with
Android 4.0 (Icrecream sandwich)
16GB device memory
(of which 12GB will be "usable")
OMAP dual core 4430 CPU
1GB RAM
5 MP camera
Google glass comes in 5 colors
Black (Charcoal)Orange (Tangerine)
Neutral (Shale)White (Cotton)
Light Blue (Sky)
On to the Good, Bad and Ugly
● Frame and nosepad are flexible
● But its reported (by Engadget) that using the glass causes headaches
● The battery lasts for one full day of typical use (according to Google)
But recording videos is noted as a
"battery intensive"
task by Google
This is quite disappointing!
It seems we have to carry a charger and find a charging outlet
in the middle of a work day if we
● take pictures● record videos● participate in Hangoutsetc.
Before starting to use the device, you just need to
pair the device with your
Google account.And that's it!
Hangouts are cool coz you can livestream
and the other person can see what you are seeing
1. Glass sometimes picks up words from conversation with other person (even without saying "OK Glass")
2. Sometimes "OK Glass" has to be uttered more than once
3. A clean accent is necessary to have the device work sanely
Here are some misbehaviors
Anyone can take a picture
(or record a video) of anyone else
at the blink of the eye
My opinion on Privacy
What if the other person
doesn't want to be
photographed (and has privacy issues)?
What if a person
photographs someone and uses it to
bully them or blackmail them?
What will happen to the face of Social?
Make sure you watch this

bad effects How technology has affected
our lives in a bad way

I personally am not sure if Google has totally forgot
about privacy issues
And will it not feel as if we have two fields of vision?
The glass serves as a
Smartphone right on our eyes
That's REALLY cool!
But will Google address the
ugly and privacy issues before launching it?
Let's see!
