Project Glass is a Google research program developing augmented reality glasses. The glasses would allow hands-free access to smartphone information through voice commands and a small video display visible through the lens. Key features would include notifications, maps, photos/videos. The glasses use technologies like wearable computing, ambient intelligence, Android, and augmented reality. Advantages are easy access to information, but disadvantages include privacy concerns and potential for distraction. The future of Project Glass could include improved designs as the technology becomes more integrated into daily life.

- 3. Introduction • Project Glass is a research and development program by Google to develop an augmented reality Head Mounted Display (HMD). • The intended purpose of Project Glass products would be the hands-free displaying of information currently available to most smart phones users, and allowing for interaction with the Internet via natural language voice commands.

- 5. Features
- 6. Technologies Used • Wearable computing • Ambient Intelligence • Smart clothing • Eye Tap technology • Smart Grid Technology • 4G Technology • Android Technology • Augmented Reality
- 7. Wearable Computing • Worn by the bearer under, with or on top of clothing. • Developed for general or special purpose information technologies and media development.
- 8. Ambient Intelligence • Electronic environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people. • Devices work in concert to support people in carrying out their everyday life activities. • The technology disappears into our surroundings until only the user interface remains perceivable by users.
- 9. Smart Clothing • It is a combination of new fabric technology and digital technology. • The clothing is made with new signal-transfer fabric technology installed with digital devices.
- 10. Eye Tap Technology • EyeTap is a device that is worn in front of the eye that acts as a eye to record the scene available to the eye as well as a display. • EyeTap intakes the world around it and augments the image the user sees allowing it to overlay computer-generated data over top of the normal world the user would perceive.
- 11. Smart Grid Technology • Smart grid is an electrical grid that uses information and communications technologies to gather and act on information about the behaviors of suppliers and consumers, in an automated fashion. • It improves the efficiency, reliability, economics, and sustainability of the production and distribution of electricity.
- 12. 4G Technology • 4G is the fourth generation of cell phone mobile communication standards. • This system provides mobile ultra broadband Internet access with data rates of 300Mbps in mobility to 1Gbps while stationary. • The data speed can make the device run about its purpose.
- 13. Android • Android is a Linux-based operating for mobile devices such as smart phones and tablet computers, developed by Google in conjunction with the Open handset Alliance.
- 14. Augmented Reality • Augmented reality is a live, direct or indirect, view of a physical, real-world environment. • Real-world elements are augmented by generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data.
- 15. How it works? Design perspective Video Display: Its features with the small video display that is used to display the pop up hands free information.
- 16. Camera: It has a front facing video camera with which photos and videos can be taken in a glimpse.
- 17. Speaker: Google glasses are designed to be hands free wearable device that can be used to make or receive calls too. So a speaker is also designed by the ear.
- 18. Button: A single button on the side of the frame sophisticates the glasses to work with the physical touch input. It can be used in multi-purposeful ways and it acts according to the context.
- 19. Microphone: A microphone is also put in, that can take the voice commands of the wearer of user. This microphone is also used for having telephonic communication.
- 20. Advantages • Easy to wear and use. • Sensitive and responsive to the presence of people. • Fast access of maps, documents, videos, chats and much more. • A new trend for fashion lovers together being an innovative technology. • A spectacle based computer to reside directly on your eyes rather than in your pouch or pocket. • A useful technology for all kinds of handicapped/disabled people.
- 21. Disadvantages • Can be easily broken or damaged. Users will have a tough time taking care of it. • It may lead to accidents while driving, eyestrain or visual confusion. • The resource for running these glasses is still unknown. Will there be a battery or it will run using solar energy? • Privacy of people may breach with nw glasses. • Can be used only in metro cities.
- 22. Future Scope • Google Glass is as futuristic a gadget we’ve seen in recent times. It’s limited in scope right now, but the future, Google believes, is bright and the device itself is “incredibly compelling”. • Google is trying their hardest to push the Project Glass through the FCC this year. Reports show that Google is trying to get the approval by the FCC this year but there are already several hundred glasses made for testing internally.
- 23. Conclusion • Google glasses are basically wearable computers that use the evolving familiar technologies that brings the sophistication and ease of communication and information access even for the physically challenged class of people those literally could not use general way of palmtops and mobiles.
