Google Glass – Closer Than you Think
With everyone under the sun talking about “how cool the Google Glass will be to wear” I thought it was worth mentioning that the device is still not due till next year, and with that a $1,500 entry price.
Google however, has graced us with a new video that shows off their UI. More refined, undoubtedly – users are shown what it would be like to take part in various activities, taking images, video, and using Google Now-style notifications and cards. The phrase “OK Glass” appears to act as a keyword for Glass to listen to the user and follow commands, similar to how Kinect users the term “Xbox”, while the name “Google” is being used for web searches.
The expanded pre-orders takes the form of a competition where prospective users have to explain how they would use the Google Glass through social media. Using Google+ or Twitter and the hashtag #ifihadglass – entrants can use up to 50 words, five images, and a 15-second video clip to show off their plans, though, sadly, it’s only open to those over 18 that reside in the US.
Without any further a due, enjoy.
