Project Glass (Google Glass)

Google Glass (Sergey Brin Glass) Seminar Abstract and sample report

Project Glass(aka Google Glass or Sergey Brin Glass) is a development project done by Google at Google lab to develop an augmented reality head-mounted display (HMD) named Google Glass

The device was announced on Google+ by Babak Parviz in early 2012, and more information came out over in 2013. Google estimates the release to be in early 2014. The price is also unknown as of Feb 2013, but Google is planning on making them cost no more than the average smartphone.

Google Glass (Project Glass) products display information in a smartphone-like format hands-free, and can interact with the Internet via natural language voice commands. The eye wear's functionality and minimalist appearance (aluminum strip with 2 nose pads) has been compared to Steve Mann's Eye-tap, and uses Google's Android operating system. Google has patented the design of Project Glass. Thad Starner is a Technical/Lead Manager on the project. Google might run Google Glass along with Android 5.0 (named Key Lime Pie) expected by 2014.

Google Glass Prototypes
Though head-worn displays for augmented reality are not a new idea, the project has drawn media attention mainly due to its backing by Google. The first Project Glass demo resembles a pair of normal eyeglasses where the lens is replaced by a head-up display. In the future, new designs may allow integration of the display into people's normal eye-wear. The main way to operate the glasses will be through voice commands, and by tilting your head. However, there are semi-confirmed rumors about many other ways to operate the glasses. One of the rumors is for scrolling a page. To do this, you simply make a scrolling motion with your finger on the side of the glasses. Another way is that a small laser mounted on the glasses will project a keyboard on the operator's arm and hand. The other hand can be used to type on the keyboard. The camera will detect what buttons are pressed. The glasses are expected to run Google's Android mobile operating system.
