GOOGLE GLASSES



The Generation right now is experiencing what is known as the coming of Age of Technology. We have see the growth from lousy lombish desktops to the notebooks. Mobile phones go from bricks to a Touch screen, advent of the tablets, phablets, motion sensing gaming (XBOX and PS3) and what not.

About Google Glasses:
However, the next tech that GeekNxt followers would be looking forward to is the Google Glasses. The technology is kind of a first step into augmented reality, and would be the next best thing to get our hands dirty into. FYI - its the closest thing, you can get to Jarvis, the A.I. in Iron Man.

It features a camera (the black dot), a thumb size display, a speakers over your right ear, a microphone and a button on the glasses. Its ultra sleek and would be commercialized in bold colors. It fits partially above the right eye (kind of like a bow over your eyebrows) and renders visual information on the screen for the user.

The glasses would supposedly connect to your phone via blue tooth and allow you to visualize information as it appears. The glasses uses voice recognition (and probably eye movements) to navigate through the various screen menus. The voice recognition command feature available in the Android Phones would be effectively utilized for this device. The glasses mainly focus on navigation, social networking and hands free communication.

The video below provides a view into what our lives would like in the near future:


GeekNxt expects that the glasses would be heavily integrated with Android OS and also be capable of a closer rendering into augmented reality. i.e. The project advertisement for the device is still in-capable of identifying certain objects (any consumer goods) or poster and play the related advertisement. Or evoke a virtual environment over the current visual. However, these are technologies of the future and one thing is for sure, technologies of the future would amaze, integrate and cross barriers of our wildest imagination.
