What do we know about Google Glass? We know that not too many non-Googlers have used it and we have seen video released by Google that might exaggerate some of the device's functions, which will mainly be notifications and navigation, at least at first. Google Glass, which is powered by Augmented Reality, is expected to hit the consumer market in 2014 for $1,500. According to Time Magazine, the device is a computer built into a pair of glasses, with a half inch display. Google Glass will allow you to video chat, take and share pictures, surf the web, check appointments and access maps.
Google Glass is one of Time's best inventions for 2012
So what will Google Glass really do for us? We might not know for sure until later next year. Still, the editors at Time Magazine were so impressed by the videos below, that they called Google Glass one of the best inventions of 2012. Congratulations to those at Google who worked on the project and we hope that the vision of the device as displayed in the first videos eventually comes to fruition.
