As the times went by, it was clear that not just was this true, Google's dream of wearable technology was so far, far closer to launch than anyone would've suspected.
Move ahead just over a year and the1st versions are in the hands of developers who went into a lottery to pay out $1,500 for their own pair of glasses.
But what precisely is Google Glass? Why is this news really attracted the attention of many people, what is the impact of good and bad for us?
What is Google Glass??
Google Glass is a device that is wear on a person's face, with a small screen located above one eye. The device will be connected with a smartphone using wireless technology, Bluetooth.
You can instructed it just with a sound, and then the user is able to open youtube, tweeter, facebook, search engines Google, GPS navigation and map, as well as watching movies or playing video games.
Google Glass uses display technology instead to put data in front (or at least, to the upper right) of your vision courtesy of a prism screen. This is designed to be easily seen without obstructing your view. According to Google the display is "the equivalent of a 25-inch high definition screen from eight feet away". There's no official word on native resolution, but 640 x 360 has been widely mooted.
Overlaying data into your vision has obvious benefits; many of which are already functional in Google Glass. Directions become more intuitive (although it sounds like there is no GPS on board so you will have to pair it with your phone), you can view real-time translations or transcriptions of what is being said, and you can scroll through and reply to messages - all on the fly.
