Google shows what it's like to use Google Glass

4.7
Google is slowly pulling down Project Glass' veil of secrecy. With each new announcement, Google reveals a tad bit more of the device's secrets.

Today marked the release of a new video, which shows off the User Interface of Google Glass. The UI shown in the video is a lot more real and less exaggerated than the original concept video. Users interact with Google Glass through a single pane in the top right.

The video shows off some basic things, like recording video, or taking pictures and then sharing them with friends in your circles. You can also video chat with friends, or relatives who are in your circles.

While the device is not being used, it looks as though it simply just shows the time - pretty much like a clock... but wrapped around your eyes...

The video also shows off things like voice control, which obviously has a very large roll in making the device easy to use. But it goes as far as allowing the user to talk out loud and the device will make a note of what is being said - Pretty much like Siri on apple devices.

And, as you would expect, it supports an image search feature, which more than likely scans Google Images for results, then gives you a few of those results on the pane in the top left of the device.

Here is the video, if you have not seen it yet:

Mazur that looks super cool and all but think about the cost!


Exactly, knowing apple, it'll probably be around $900.


this is a Google product...?


Oh geeze, what was I thinking. Still, I can see google overpricing this too.


i doubt it, they'd probably make it like a console price. if it were Apple it'd be around 1k to 1500$ i'd assume.


Maybe. Google is all about the money too you know.


This is pretty amazing tech, I wouldn't be surprised.


I heard developer versions are $1,500.. Google is pretty good about its prices though


They still want money, but yes they are reasonable.

No they aren't, they don't have any products at all like Apple does!
