Google Glass Coming to Developers this Month
Google announced plans yesterday (Tuesday) to hold a “Glass Foundry” in San Francisco and New York in the coming weeks which will be two full days of hacking to allow developers to get an early look at the Glass and start developing for the platform.
The first day will more so be an intro to the features Project Glass has and is capable of; while the 2nd will delve into the Mirror API which evidently “gives you the ability to exchange data and interact with the user over REST”. Google engineers will be on site for assistance to any developers who need it.
Developers who were in attendance of Google’s IO conference last year were able to order the ‘Explorer Editions’ of the glasses for $1500. Those glasses are expected to ship to developers early this year, however, the exact date is still undetermined.
Glass Foundry will be held in San Francisco from Jan 28th-29th and in New York from Feb. 1 to 2. Developers who take part in the Glass Foundry events will be able to use units on-site. Both events require registration and are available only to a limited number of developers.
