Google Glass Project
Google Glass Project - Google is planning to release a high-tech set of display glasses towards the end of 2012. These glasses are a revolutionary concept in computers, and will take the idea of the mobile computing one step further. The glasses are rumored to have an outward facing camera, whose job is to record your movements and gestures. Supposedly, the technology will also allow your hand can reach out like a computer mouse and control the glasses' navigation. The good thing about these glasses is that the lenses are clear, which allow you to stay in touch with the remainder of the world, instead of the traditional tablets, that will become all-consuming. The glasses is going to be Android based, and definately will have flash and voice input capabilities.
Sources say the glasses will be priced much like a smartphone, and could cost anywhere from $150 to $600, with some sources say better $250 for a pair. The glasses may look a bit geeky in their first versions, and often will supposedly look just like a pair of Oakley's Thumbs MPS player glasses. While the screens are transparent, the heads up display is only for one eye, and will supposedly not really take up the whole screen.
Google is still unsure if they will find a market for the product. The glasses are thought a pet project, to see if the world is ready for any new form of computing. The thought was thanks partly to Google's 'Google X' laboratory, where they trial experimental, "out there" ideas. Google has always allowed it's engineers to devote 20 percent of their time towards these experimental projects and also have tested out products as wacky as talking refrigerators and robot workers. There is certainly even a rumored 'self-drive' vehicle within the works that could alter the future of transportation. Google proudly admits they've invested quite a bit of profit very speculative Research and Development projects; most of which have been more successful than others.

If Google can find a market for their Google Glasses, they can potentially change everything we realize, from marketing and advertising, to the way we do business and be employed in our personal lives. Adding a completely functioning computer to our already expanding human capacity could elevate our society to a completely new level. Buyers, however, could be the ones to accept or reject fractional treatments, and it may end up being only a first step in introducing a revolutionary product from Google.
