Google Glass

That’s a wearable future we all will probably "see" by Richard

Technology that will change the world dramatically is VR, AI, 3D printing and Zeiss’s smart glasses.

Virtual reality will probably be the best interface between humans and machines. Machines that will develop itself, and other machines, thanks to artificial intelligence. 3D printing will be the first machine we will send out for space explorations, since it will basically just consume space-dust printing out whatever piece we need to build with... Also will 3D printing enable AI to create other AI...

Carl Zeiss internal Smart Optics lab has created an unobtrusive curved smart lens that puts data directly inside the glass, rather than relying on a heads up display to augment reality. It’s developed a smart-glass optical unit that can be built into what looks like a normal lens. Wearing Zeiss’s smart glasses it's like wearing any pair of glasses but with Internet integrated in-front of your eye.

Zeiss doesn’t make frames or operating systems, just lenses, which means it needs partners to create frames and power them with an OS and let the APPs make us go WOW... Once the company finds a partner, technically its just weeks away from mass production. I guess Zeiss will work with Google Glass, Microsoft HoloLens, Oculus?

will anyone wear them by Richard

There’s been a lot of talk and excitement about Google Glasses lately, clearly it’s a fascinating product and concept but will anyone wear them and create a Killer App for Google Glass? The hype around Google’s new wearable computers might not translate into a big market for apps, for a while.

Google hope to make money in mobile computing, which is the fastest growing consumer technology in history. 65% of the world isn't even online. That means the real change in the technology has only just beginning.

Google Glass might find an early value in specialized uses, including job-related functions that are done away from a computer. Like mobile application developed for property managers, hospitals staff, SWAT teams and of course new games.

Google Glass may offer a new way of gathering the information, but a lot of that data is already collected on smartphones.

I see Google Glass as a great product but I am not sure I would wear them, except for identifying liars!
