Introduction

*Google Glass – Wearable computer with an OHMD

*Developed by R&D Dept of Google (Google X)

*To reduce delay between intention and action

*Camera, display, touchpad, battery and microphone

built in to spectacle frame.

What is Google

It is a Head Mounted Device, which is made up of

Titanium shaft.

Glass also uses many existing Google applications,

such as Google Now, Google Maps, Google+, and

Gmail.

We can connect this GLASS with any smart phone.

It requires internet connection for all the tasks such

as sharing, GPS, tracking etc.

Technologies Used

Virtual Reality

Augmented Display

Voice Control

Eye Tap Technology

Virtual Reality

Computer-simulated environment that can simulate physical presence.

Displayed through computer screen or through special stereoscopic displays.

Speakers, headphones, force feedback also used.

Gaming, Simulations for pilot training.

Augmented Display

View of a real–world environment supplemented by computer generated sensory input.

Sports scores on TV, Nokia City Lens

Voice Control

ADC translates the

analog waves

(voice) into digital

data by sampling

the sound.

EyeTap Technology• EyeTap is 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.

• EyeTap intakes the world

around it and augments

image the user sees allowing

it to overlay computer-

generated data over top of the

normal world the user would

perceive.

Disadvantages

Can take pictures without permission.

Not for right hand handicapped.

No voice calibration. The video and camera can be misused and anybody can capture.

The overall cost which is around $1890. With this much money there are many more technology driven things that can be bought.

There is a complete ban on the use of Google Glasses at several places. Hence you cannot use this device everywhere that you want.

It requires a internet connection

Conclusion

Google Glass is still in the development process and far from

the production phase.

The ever-present fear of security threats, such as theft and

malware, must also be taken into consideration.

Steps of protection against malware have not yet been

discussed by Glass’ designers.

Production and sale of Google Glass for the public will not

occur for at least a few years. There are no signs of left eye

version too.

Google Glass will have a significant impact on the direction

that the technology industry follows in the future.
