Google Glass is a wearable computer with an optical head-mounted display developed by Google. It looks like a pair of eyeglasses but has an interactive display and supports voice commands. Google Glass runs on Android and connects to smartphones via Bluetooth and WiFi. It allows users to access information by using voice commands to take photos, get directions, search the internet, and more.

GOOGLE GLASS NAME OF THE STUDENT, email id, phone number. Abstract Google Glass is a typeof wearabletechnology with an optical head-mounted display (OHMD). It was developed by R&D Dept. of Google with the mission of producing a ubiquitous computer. Google Glasses look like a pair of eyeglasses, but the lens of the glasses are an interactive, smartphone-like display, with natural language voice command support as well as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. Google Glass is powered by the Android mobile operating system and compatibility with both Android-powered mobile devices and Apple iOS-powered devices is expected. A useful technology for all kinds of handicapped/disabled people. Keywords: Virtual and augmented reality, wearable computing, eye tap, smart clothing, 4G, Android. 1. Introduction Google's project program for developing a line of hands- free, head-mounted intelligent devices that can be worn by users as "wearable computing" eyewear. It is part of the Google X Lab, which works on other futuristic technologies. The functionality and physical appearance has been compared to Steve Mann's EyeTap, which was also referred to as "Glass". Fig1: Steve Mann’s EyeTap. 2. Overview Google Glass was designed to take phonecalls, send texts and also take photos and video and deliver search results. The wearable computing device is also keyed to voice commands, for example to take a picture you simply say "take a picture" to capture what is in your view. Like smartphones and tablets, the glasses will be equipped with GPS and motion sensors. They will also contain a camera and audio inputs and outputs. (Shown in Fig2.) Fig2: The Google Glasses can use a 4G cell connection to pull in information from Google’s mountain of data and display info about the real world in augmented reality on the lens in front of your eye. As you turn your head you’ll get information about your surroundings and nearby objects from Google Goggles, info on buildings and establishments from Google Maps, even your friends’ nearby check-ins from Latitude. 3. Technologies used A. Wearable Computing: Wearable computers, also known as body-borne computers are miniature electronic devices that are worn by thebearer under, with or on top of clothing. Developed for general or special purpose information technologies and media development. B. Smart Clothing: It is a combination of new fabric technology and digital technology, which means that the clothing is made with new signal-transfer fabric technology installed with digital devices. (Shown in Fig3.) C. Eye Tap Technology: An EyeTap is a device that is worn in front of the eyethat acts as a camera to record the scene available to theeyeas well as a display. (Shown in Fig3.) D. Smart Grid Technology: A smart grid is an electrical grid that uses information and communications technology to gather and act on information, such as information about the behaviors of suppliers and consumers, in an automated fashion to improve the efficiency, reliability, economics, and sustainability of the production and distribution of electricity. (Shown in Fig3.) E. 4G Technology: 4G Technology is basically the extension in the 4G technology with more bandwidth and services offers in the 3G.This systemprovides higher data rates of 100 Mbps in mobility to 1 Mbps while stationary. F. Android Operating System: Android is a Linux-based operating system for mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers, developed by Google in conjunction with the Open Handset Alliance. (Shown in Fig3.)
Fig3: Smart clothing, smart grid Technology, EyeTap Technology, Android 4. How it Works? A. Design a. Video Display: Its features with the small video display that is used to display the pop up hands free information. b. Camera: It also has thefront facing video camera with which photos and videos can be taken in a glimpse. c. Speaker: Google glasses are designed to be hands free wearable device that can be used to make or receive calls too. So a speaker is also designed by the ear. d. Button: A single button on the side of the frame sophisticates the glasses to work with the physical touch input. e. Microphone: A microphone is also put in, that can take the voice commands of the wearer of user. This microphone is also used for having telephonic communication. Fig4: Parts of Google Glass. B. Working The device will probably communicate with mobile phones through Wi-Fi and display contents on the video screen as well as respond to the voice commands of the user. The video camera senses the environment and recognizes the objects and people around. The whole working of the Google glasses depends upon the user voice commands itself. 5. Benefits  Easy to wear and use.  Sensitive and responsive to the presence of people.  Fast access of maps, documents, videos, chats and much more.  A new trend for fashion lovers together being an innovative technology.  A spectacle based computer to reside directly on your eyes rather than in your pouch or pocket.  A useful technology for all kinds of handicapped/disabled people. 6. Disadvantages  Can be easily broken or damaged. Though Google wants these glasses to be as modest as achievable, they seem to be extremely breakable.  It may lead to accidents while driving.  Privacy of peoplemay breach with new glasses. 7. Conclusion Google glasses are basically wearable computers that use the evolving familiar technologies that brings the sophistication and ease of communication and information access even for the physically challenged class of people those literally could not use general way of palmtops and mobiles. 8.
