INTRODUCTION
Just a couple of days ago, Google released a brand new video showing real-life footage from its Project Glass,
a futuristic wearable heads-up display with a mounted camera and cellular connectivity. Weve seen Glass
in action before, but now is the first time we actually get to see the user interface of the platform powering
Glass as it is. Not just that, we get a deeper look at what Google thinks would be the practical uses for the
futuristic wearable display.
Weve watched this video over and over again, imagining the possibilities offered by Glass. We believe
Glass has the potential to be more than just a heads-up display. With cellular connectivity on board, it
could well be the next big disruption since the iPhone. And with a deeply engraved social DNA, Glass
could finally give Google Plus a much needed push, turn the market dynamics against Facebook, and change
telephony along the way. Here is how.
BASIC CONCEPTS
WHAT IS GOOGLE PROJECT GLASSES?
Google Glass is the attempt to make wearable computing mainstream, and it’s effectively a smart pair of
glasses with an integrated heads-up display and a battery hidden inside the frame. Wearable computing is
not a new idea, but Google’s enormous bank account and can-do attitude means that Project Glass could
well be the first product to do significant numbers. Google glasses are nothing but technology on your
face.You can use all modern technology of your smartphone without using your hands,its the simple thing
that is technology on ypur face . Its just like any other device having operating system and all other features
that are available in smartphone but main thing is that its faster,wearable and you can use it while doing
day to day activities
WHEN WILL IT BE RELEASED?
above figure shows that,It looks as though Project Glass will see a public release in 2014 at the earliest.
Latest news is that developers will be able to get hold of ’explorer edition’ units at some point in 2013 with
a ”broad consumer offering” arriving a year later.
OPERATING SYSTEM USED
Android 4.1 Jelly Bean: The list of new features The android system is use for google project glasses.
Android, version 4.1 Jelly Bean is used in google project glasses. The new update of Android, version 4.1
Jelly Bean, is officially available on the Smartphone Galaxy Nexus in the United States and of course on the
long-awaited Google Nexus 7. And now Its gonna to be used in google project glasses.
• The notifications will be more comprehensive, with the ability to perform certain actions directly at the
level of the notification bar without launching the application. For example you can view a screenshot
you just captured in a notification and also share at the same time.
• In the browser HTML5 rendering has been enhanced to videos and animations. The pages will appear
faster with the Javascript Engine V8. We deem coin if these improvements are really effective.
• Face Unlock, that is the option that allows you to lock or unlock your device with the recognition of
your face should be more precise and fast through the recording of multiple photos to recognize you
and this even with accessories such as sunglasses or a hat
BLUETOOTH
Googles Project Glass will undoubtedly have network connectivity through Bluetooth 4.0 and 802.11 b/g,
so when a Federal Communications Commission filing for this device was spotted detailing these features,
it wasnt anything to surprising. However, along with these features, the filing for Project Glass or Google
Glasses also highlighted the fact that this wearable device will also come with bone conduction technology.
What this means is that Google Glasses will eliminate headphones as well as earpieces and instead rely on
vibrations that are conducted through the ear bones to allow you to hear music and other audio content.
The advantage of using this technology is that not only can you hear music that you are playing through
this device, but you can also hear conversations that are taking place beside you. Now, bone conduction
technology by itself isnt new, its been around for some time. The only problem is that this technology hasnt
become mainstream with most users still preferring headphones to listen to music. However, Google is a big
player and if their Google Glasses do take take off, we may finally see bone conduction technology come to
the forefront much faster then it would have without the backing of the search engine giant
VOICE COMMANDS
In order to understand the prospects for Google Glass, we need to look at Googles recent history.. More
importantly, it has started changing extremely rapidly, evolving in a very clear vertically integrated vector.
Googles strong cloud presence however is just a part of the foundation that has been laid to make Google
Glass possible. Arguably the most important new piece of technology behind the ambitious heads-up Glass
display that is designed to be used with no hands is voice interaction. Weve really only recently started
seeing the brilliant work done on voice recognition in Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, the first Android version that
leverages Googles brain, a cloud-based artificial intelligence system that creates more patterns as you feed
it more data, and thus only gets better over time. The end result is an extremely snappy and accurate
voice recognition engine that is right now working for English, and will soon be deployed to recognize other
languages as well. Woow you need not to use your hands,its just voice commands
CONCLUSION
Thus we have overlook a new upcoming device which is gonna to be released in market by the end of
2014 and which will be revolutionary device called as a google project glass. This device will change
the meaning of a technology,this device will change the medium of communication and will be popular
within a few years.
