Google Glass

Google Glass is a type of wearable technology with an optical head-mounted display. Wearers communicate with the Internet via natural language voice commands. Google started selling Google Glass to qualified "Glass Explorers" in the US on April 15, 2014 for a short amount of time for $1500, before it became available to every body on May 15, 2014 for the same price. Google provides 4 prescription frame choices for $225.00 and free with the purchase of any new Glass unit so people can see as well as have there phone in Google glass. If it is necessary, remove a small screw in order to move the Google Glass from one frame to another. Google entered in a partnership with the Italian eyewear company Luxottica, owners of the Ray-Ban, Oakley, and other brands, to offer additional frame designs. A touchpad is on the side of Google Glass, letting users to control the device by swiping through a timeline-like interface displayed on the screen. Google Glass has the ability to take photos and record 720p HD video. Google offers a companion Android and iOS app called My Glass, which allows the user to manage the device. To activate Glass, wearers tilt their heads 30° upward or tap the touchpad, and say "O.K., Glass." Once Glass is activated, wearers can say an action, such as "Take a picture", "Record a video", "Google 'what year was Wikipedia founded?“ "Give me directions to the Eiffel Tower", and "Send a message to John" These are some of the things Google glass is good for and how it works.
