Google-Glass is a research and
development program by Google to develop
an Augmented Reality (AR) Head Mounted
Display (HMD).
The intended purpose of Project Glass products
would be the hands-free displaying of information
currently available to most smart
phones users, and allowing for interaction with the
Internet via natural language voice commands.
Introduction
![Page 4: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Overview of Google Glass
The glasses are not being designed to be worn constantly — although Google engineers expect some users will wear them a lot — but will be more like smart phones, used when needed, with the lenses serving as a kind of see-through computer monitor.
Several people who have seen the glasses, but who are not allowed to speak publicly about them, said that the location information was a major feature of the glasses. Through the built-in camera on the glasses, Google will be able to stream images to its rack computers and return augmented reality information to the person wearing them. For instance, a person looking at a landmark could see detailed historical information and comments about it left by friends. If facial recognition software becomes accurate enough, the glasses could remind a wearer of when and how he met the vaguely familiar person standing in front of him at a party. They might also be used for virtual reality games that use the real world as the playground.

Features
• Tiny & Powerful• Google Glass’ Voice Input• Take Photos & Videos• Always On Call• Get Location On-The-Go• Weather & Travel Alerts• Easy Sharing
![Page 6: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Tiny & PowerfulIt’s amazing how the Project Glass team has
managed to squeeze all of its features into a tiny ‘computer’ supported on a lightweight yet strong frame.
![Page 7: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Google Glass is packed with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS, speakers, a camera, microphone, touchpad and possibly a Gyroscope that detects head-tilts. Then there’s the main piece, a tiny screen the size of your finger, that shows you all the information you need at your finger tips.
![Page 8: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Google Glass’ Voice Input Well, all that hardware is put to good use: Google Glass
has voice input, which makes everything a lot more interesting. The built-in microphone combined with Google Now connects you directly to the search engine.
You activate Google Now by saying "Okay Glass" then send a command or question. Tilting your head up does
the same thing.
![Page 9: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Google Glass users can now live in the moment, and
keep that memory in pictures or videos. No more
foraging around for a camera, tuning the settings of
your photo apps, and letting the moment go by without
a single snap.
You can take a photo or record a video, all by just saying
the command for it – more on that, later. On the right, is
a touchpad where you can swipe through, to get to
menus; tapping, registers your selection. Just say, "Take
a Photo" and your view at the moment is captured,
hands-free.
Take Photos & Videos
![Page 10: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Other than photos, you can do the same with videos, which spells opportunities for extreme sports, real-life tutorials and more. Of course, picture quality coming from a device this small would not be comparable to a DSLR camera, but oftentimes, you’d rather not lose out on the moment.
![Page 11: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Always On Call With Glass being able to record
videos, it can also act as a webcam with the data connection from your home or smartphone. You can use Google Hangout for a group conference, and still do what you need to do without being confined to a desk.
The powerful voice input feature also allows you to dictate text messages, attach videos and pictures alongwith and sending it via your mobile data connection, without having to remove your phone from your pocket.
![Page 12: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Get Location On-The-Go Since it’s built with a GPS chip, it has an Interior Map
it’ll be able to help you navigate, with help from
Google Maps. This will take away the need to look
down at your smartphone and it will be especially
handy when you are driving, when you’re walking
through crowded streets or when you’re hiking through
the countryside.
![Page 13: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Weather & Travel Alerts Live information that is shown to you would come from the
predictive software of Google Now. On Android’s Jelly Bean,
Google Now knows when you’re leaving your home for work and
can warn you of bad traffic before you get stuck in it.
![Page 14: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
You can also set your favourite sports team and it’ll give you the latest
news, scores and updates from the team, whenever they play.
All those features are available on Android, but with Glass, you can skip
checking your device and just get it shown to you as and when it happens,
or as news feeds. Google Now cards also shows you your boarding pass,
next appointment, hotel or restaurant reservations, reminders for
important birthdays and events in your calendar.
![Page 15: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Easy Sharing Google Glass works not only with
Android phones but also with the
iPhone, according to this report.
Apart from the GPS chip inside,
Google Glass is dependent on the
Wi-Fi or mobile connectivity to
deliver its features. It is only fair
game it if is available like any third-
party accessory.
When paired up with your smart
device, it can show social network
notifications and let you
communicate via the same
channels as you would on the
computer. This removes the need of
looking at your smartphone
constantly, giving you more time to
concentrate on the task at hand.
![Page 16: Projectglassppt 130418102721-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c8433c4a795965098b4584/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
How it works? The device will probably communicate with mobile phones through
Wi-Fi and display contents on the video screen as well as respond
to the voice commands of the user.
Google put together a short video demonstrating the features and
apps of Google glasses. It mainly concentrates on the social
networking, navigation and communication.
The video camera senses the environment and recognizes the
objects and people around. The whole working of the Google
glasses depends upon the user voice commands itself.

Future ScopeGoogle Glass is as futuristic a gadget we’ve
seen in recent times. It’s limited in scope right
now, but the future, Google believes, is bright
and the device itself is “incredibly compelling”.
Google is trying their hardest to push the Project
Glass through the FCC this year. Reports show
that Google is trying to get the approval by the
FCC this year but there are already several
hundred glasses made for testing internally.
