Google Glass: A must have ?
Google Glass is now a reality. To many of us, It is the next big step in mobile communications.
Simply put, Google Glass is a camera, display, touchpad, battery and microphone built into spectacle frames so that you can perch a display in your field of vision, film, take pictures, search and translate on the go. (Great for Timebandit)
Google Glass uses display technology instead to put data in front (or at least, to the upper right) of your vision courtesy of a prism screen. This is designed to be easily seen without obstructing your view. According to Google the display is "the equivalent of a 25-inch high definition screen from eight feet away".
Overlaying data into your vision has obvious benefits; Directions become more intuitive , you can view real-time translations or transcriptions of what is being said, and you can scroll through and reply to messages - all on the fly.
As well as photos and film - which require no explanation - you can use the Google hangout software to video conference with your friends and show them what you're looking at.
Note: Many strip clubs and cinemas have already banned Google Glass.
So! Is it an invasion of privacy. Is it taking technology too far – if that is possible ?
Will you buy one ?
Lols saala.
Khanan I leave Rizku to you.. all yours... :)
'bouncing bums' ? :(
Ariel m not a Pathaan...:)
(No Offense to my dear pathaans on board)
Intrusion in to the privacy of general public !!! it should be banned !!!!
Rizk will walk around corniche and souq to video record the bouncing bums !!!!
google glass...every glass is a see through...maybe you are referring to the x-ray glass
I thought Rizk will say "I will buy you all one if it shows hairs on bald flashing head." :)
You ninny. Of course it does. otherwise it would be known as Google Blindfold :O(
Anyway, the positive is that as you walk along Doha Jadeed you can request a heads up display of the nearest Karak Chai palace whilst using the camera to keep watch behind you ..
I will only buy if it has see through option...:(
old news :(
Hahaha ROFL on " I am going to hack your face"
There will be spammers as well.
I read about it last month and my fingers and every thing are crossed. :) Will get from my pal as it will be available in US only initially.
P.S. Chinese production might be available soon.
