Google Project Glass: Explained!

2012-04-05
hey what's up guys I'm kay PhD here as you probably already have seen this project from Google rooms recently made public called Google glass has gotten a lot of buzz in the last couple of hours really I slept on it and I thought about it and I think it's about time we take a little bit of a deeper analysis in this sort of augmented reality thing so let's take a look at these Google glasses by the way if I sound like I'm sick because I'm sick so let's first start off with the video that Google Pao for them looks like the guy woke up and he was already wearing his jeans and his Google glasses but that's cool cuz I'd probably sleep in my glasses too if i was a beta tester anyway he's going along with his day and then he gets this notification that pops up in the corner and then he is somehow able to bring this notification into focus and then do some actions with it before he releases it now when I see this I'm really really hoping that there's a way to be able to choose when the notification goes from the corner to the main focus because if you're doing something important like oh I don't know driving a car how you might want to be able to leave that notification in the corner for a while until you're not busy anymore so I'd like to know if you like there's some I guess ters that are going on if this guy's like tapping his forehead or if he's nodding or something something to get the notification to be in your control very very important anyway he uses Google Maps he navigates to this bookstore he walks into the bookstore he's waiting for his friend there and as he walks in he opens up this dialog and says out loud to nobody in the store where's the music section now if you thought people looked ridiculous wearing Bluetooth headsets and talking to nobody at least you could tell like there was something on their ear you noticed after a while with this Google glass it's kind of just like someone walking up to you saying something to nobody nodding in approval and walking away I don't know it just seems a little bit it's the next level of that Bluetooth thing I don't know what its gonna look like but I'm definitely interested to see how it works anyway what I liked about this video were the tons of Google services that I saw that are already on Android like Google Calendar like Google notifications with latitude and navigation through Google Maps and photo sharing through Google+ you know instantly being able to take a picture that's really cool and I like that what I don't know and if I don't know if I'm gonna like or not is how you actually control these things you know if you're blinking incessantly or if you're nodding your head from side to side looking like a crazy person I don't know leave a thumbs up if you want me to try to get like beta testing hands on these I don't know how it's gonna work maybe it's gonna be like a Chromebook pilot program but I really really really want to be one of the first people to use this also Google glass will probably not be the final name it's the name of the project that Google unveiled but it's also still on sort of a super alpha testing apparently I was trying to think of other names for it maybe Google Goggles I mean that's already a product but that also doesn't really resonate well with the Android or the average Joe Google Goggles like no one wants goggles but I figured Google I sounds kind of cool I don't know leaders so if you have a comment if you think there's a better name out there for it leave it in the comments section below on this YouTube video other than that yeah augmented reality is definitely a future and Google putting ads in it is also definitely the future hopefully not obtrusive ads but like we've seen Google it makes a lot of money from ads and it'll be interesting to see where they take it from here either way thanks for watching this video stay tuned for a very special video coming up this Sunday so if you're not already subscribed you're gonna want to do that and I'll talk to you guys the next video thanks for watching peace you
