Google Project Glass or Google Goggles


Google’s much-awaited video glasses are apparently under development. For a long time, we have been listening to rumors about Google’s plans to launch special video glasses merging all features of a smartphone. Recently, guys at Google’s famous hush-hush lab Google X have surfaced as a set of images and a video clip on the proposed Google Glasses. They introduce themselves as members of Google X- Project Glass, which is meant to build a kind of technology that will let users explore and share a new world. The Google glasses may open up a new horizon of opportunities just in front of the users’ eyes. Here we go through some potential features of Google Glass, which are compiled based on the video clip and images from the Google X team. 

To make calls, send texts, and surf the web: Well, Google Glasses may likely come as a complete replacement for modern-day smartphones. Maybe, it will take time for the realization of the glasses. Yes, there will be advanced options for users to make calls, send texts and even surf the web on the glasses. Wearing a pair of transparent glasses, users can stay accessed to a world of interaction and knowledge.
 
Sound recognition: Of course, a Siri-like sound recognition app will be the flagship feature of Google Glasses. Users won’t have to press many more buttons or lay fingers on a touchscreen to control the device. Everything will take place as the user just tells the device to do some actions. You can just tell the glassless to make a call, send a text or search the web on a keyword and like that. The video clip from the Google X team clearly testifies the glasses’ sound recognition capability. 

Location navigation: There would be no better interface than a pair of glasses for location navigation. On request, the glasses may possibly show Google Map with direction towards your destination. It is quite simple for the user to make out the location and walk ahead to the pursuit as the map is shown that much near to the eyes.

To set reminders: The glasses can remind a user of a meeting or an engagement much effectively. Reminder on a smartphone, which you keep in your trouser’s pocket, may sometimes go without required attention. But, when the glasses in front of your eyes tell you of a function or event, chances are high that you will not forget it. 

Video chatting: There will also be a video chatting facility. Imagine making a video chatting with your friends while walking in a street. Won’t it be an incredible experience for you? 

To capture photos: The video clip from the Google X team shows that the glasses are capable of grabbing images as well.
