This guy decided to make a commercial for Google's new glasses. Something tells me this is a bit closer to reality than anything we've seen out of Google.
Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.
Note: This feature may not be available in some browsers.
I see what they're trying to say, but I doubt it'll be this way. The screen on the device is not obstructing your view, and even if it was further down in front of your eye, you still have the other eye unobstructed.
Unless you are partially blind, or have vision issues. How does this work with people that need to wear glasses?
That would make invasion of privacy easier for google
This^Also can't wait to see how drivers would handle it.

You get contacts.

So how annoying will this be when you're trying to have a face-to-face conversation with someone who is wearing this? Also can't wait to see how drivers would handle it.
Seems like this would be useful for police / soldiers who need constant data streams, but the average person doesn't need this much info all the time - most users can do just as well with a smart phone.
AgreedI have not read most of the posts on this thread just can not be bothered.
Do we need this ? please take time to think about it. OK its going to be done anyway.
Would you like to know about that person at your left, right, in-front or the person 100 yards behind ? are they A, B, C, D group ? Extra charge for a list of their recent "Open buys online"
I find this dive down the digital hole sad, frightening and a push too far.
Agreed
I can't think of any reason why this is necessary. I don't need to have additional digital information shown in my view all the time. If I want to read something I'll look at it. If I'm walking or driving, then I'd like to have 100% view of my surrounding.
Uh, yeah. Well there is this thing called Google car so wtf else you going to do while your car drives you around?.......
Good point, and I'm sure these won't be free, so everyone who buys one will have paid to be an unpaid soldier in Google's research army.I have not read most of the posts on this thread just can not be bothered.

There are few items truly necessary to any human being. Water, food, oxygen, and the occasional medicine are among those necessary items. That doesn't mean there is no desire for things which don't fall into those aforementioned categories.I can't think of any reason why this is necessary.
If I wanted to price match, I just run the Red Laser app on my iPhone and scan an item. If I needed directions, my iPhone can help me there too. Ditto making calls. Ditto texting. My car's GPS can handle mapping my travels in unfamiliar places.
I'm good, thanks anyways Google.
Or the glasses could take care of all of it.
Hmm, carry a bunch of stuff or wear a single item?
