Google Glass is a pair of glasses that you wear but can do what other normal spectacles can not ever do so. It has a tiny high-resolution screen embedded right where your peripheral vision starts and because it is close enough to your eyes, eyes sees it like a 25-inch screen display. Google has launched the video tutorial of Google Glasses that depicts the user how should it be used.
One can simply wear this glass as their normal glasses. The glass band has a touch pad located on the eyeglass frames. Tap the touch pad to wake or start the Google Glass. To operate the apps, swipe back and forth on the pad to scan individual cards with your fingers. Tap the touch pad to select a card if you want to see more information. The cards to the left are stuffs like weather, incoming flights, and calendar events and to your right are things like messages, videos, and photos. One swipe down to go back to the main menu and again, swipe down on the touch pad to get your Glass in standby mode, as shown in the video.
Google Glasses comes with 16GB internal storage, fitted with a tiny speaker, microphone and motion sensor that interpret commands based on the wearer's head movements. Eye movements can also be used to control the device and simple head motions scroll through different apps and features.
Google Glass can do everything a smartphone does without coming out of your pocket. It can film and photograph on demand, provide real-time info at the nod of your head and also get driving instructions and maps without looking down.
There is always two sides of coin. If there are good points, there are bad points too. The same with Google Glass that comprised with privacy at all levels. Anyone can look you up, recognize you, search for all your personal details and invade your life without even let you know. The other bad factors are such as distraction and discomfort. These glasses can easily distract you from your work and outside world and crossing the road while wearing these glasses could be dangerous. The other one is discomfort as they are not the most comfortable glasses. They need attention and extra care as they are super fragile and for those who do not have the habit of wearing glasses, can affect them.
But, i would say it is a future and who cares about the negative side of technology. Google is already working on privacy factor. Google has decided to authorize the person wearing these glasses with Google account and if any other wear that same glass can not see the details of other individual.
