Things are progressing quickly with Google Glass lately. The Glass Foundry events were a boon of information and ideas from some very bright developers, and the recent hash-tagging contest only promises to bring more genius.
One of the larger questions about Glass is, well, how it will do all that cool stuff we see on the official website. With the non-disclosure agreement signed by Glass Foundry attendees, not much has been mentioned about just how Glass will do anything. In reading The Verge’s take on Google Glass, we now know the following:
The
device gets data through Wi-Fi on its own, or it can tether via
Bluetooth to an Android device or iPhone and use its 3G or 4G data while
out and about. There’s no cellular radio in Glass, but it does have a
GPS chip.
Google Glass will have
the ability to tether while out an about, meaning more of what you want
to know will be available to you in real time. This opens up a whole new
world of possibilities, and actually makes Google Glass much more
useful. Some may consider the tethering to be a hindrance. but if we
consider that a smartphone is much more powerful that Glass is, or may
ever be, we have a whole new realm of possibilities. With such new and
forward technology like Google Glass, it can be hard to really imagine
the possibilities, as we tend to assume it will be a standalone device.
Now that we know how it accesses information, we can begin to dream.
We’re curious, though… what would you use Glass for? What functions would you like to see from the promising new device?
