Go back 50 years and ask people "whats going to take off?". I doubt anyone would have picked our constant attachment to mobile devices.

And before one our older members says "i wont ever be into that", just realise what device you used to make that statement:), your on your way:)


EDIT: Not calling you old Nisshead!!

Now let have a look at the technology here. What's new???...Well, nothing really

Its bloody ugly but most importantly it won't be socially acceptable to be video or audio recording people around you without their permission, or to be online constantly without others knowing.

FAIL!

I'm a luddite and I'm sticking by that. Still trying to get my head around the "APPs" concept

Like its not socially accepted to have a 10 mega pixel camera on your mobile phone? Like all the people that are against video surveilance in our shopping malls and roads?
Give it time mate.
I reckon they might be made to put a little red recording light on the front of the glasses

well not really john, youre on the phone typing in a forum, posting pics, following links. Youre as technologically advanced to your fathers generation as your son seems to you. Ooo thats a bit confusing lol

Yeah, we know when someone is holding a phone up videoing you or taking a photo. Imagine trying to have a serious conversation knowing you are going straight online or just being recorded..

We are all heading towards bigger screen devices and not smaller. The UX experience sounds good in theory bit what about if you start getting adds popping up in your face constantly disrupting everything you're trying to do.


We all know how good the current voice controls are and how they haven't really taken off because of the failure factor.. ..

Oh yeah, they forgot the phone function

[taslucas]

well i reckon if i was worried about having a conversation in front of those glasses then id ask them to take them off. Also i think for the next 10 years or so they will be only used to be worn at a certain time (like the go pro revolution). I think it will be a bit longer than that before they are accepted as a constant. If i had to wear glasses for my eyesight then id love the ability to make them work more for me.

[04OFF]

yeh steve it was a boring vid, but I still want one

Yeh i think i may want one too, it looks great at the start, but just not 100% sure what "it" is, cos what ole mate had on "his" head looked different to the "ad"...... i hit fast forward after glass man was doing his pausing for "effect", gave me 10 mins of my life back to do something else (ha-ha)



lol do you want cheat notes?

Yes please ! :tease: (he-he)

[taslucas]

10 mins of my life back to do something else (ha-ha)




Lol technology will make something for that one day haha

Yeah I don't know how its going to pan out but my gut feeling is we(society) is trying to move away from constant social media lifestyle but are currently hooked because it all so new.

it would interest me if it was video camera implanted into your eye with video and audio recognition of different places and languages with few zettabytes thrown in for storage with full backup of your life...ROLF

Ha, no word of a lie, this evening i said to my girlfriend: "i bet by the time my grandkids have laptops, they will laugh at us for living in the days when we had cords and chargers"

Did anyone actually notice there was no glass.. there just a frame with a tiny mobile phone cp on the side..
Throw on some transition lenses and it would be good..

But wow, I mist admit technology is leaping ahead.. can't be far off of launching man to moon again, just to capture it in HD..

And as far as the actual glasses, Google is talking to likes of RayBan and other makers to be able to intemperate the gimmick into the sunnies ;)
