Project Glass is coming on the stage

Project Glass was being showed in a very special way on the first day of Google I/O 2012.

It’s really awesome.It seems to turn some impossible stuff into the reality.It makes communication and interaction more convenient and natural.Google took another video to let us know how the Glass could give us a better life.

Is that amazing?Frankly speaking,I’m willing to get it very much,however,that is not cheap at this point.It labelled at US$1500 and only for the attendees(developers) who participated in Google I/O 2012.The first batch will only be delivered in the early next year.

Google claims that it could help to improve the battery life too.

  • Richer notifications

It could let you get more controls through notifications.Of course,you now could reply a call directly from the notification. Continue reading
