Nope, they still look nerdy, even when disguised by a hot model.

...and you think people who talk or text while they drive is a problem...I can't wait until they get ahold of a pair of these....

This is the future and it looks awesome, give it a couple of years and this could be awesome.

Wow, looks nice. Keep the stupid social stuff - I'm hoping this will decouple our computers from their input and output devices. If they integrate motion sensing into this, we'll have any interface we want at any time, with our entire field of vision being the display.

Of course morons will still want to 'check-in' at their local hot dog stand and 'share' their 'tweets' with their 'circles' on 'Pinterest' or whatever is the new thing this week, but that's just going to be the tip of the iceberg.

Wow, looks nice. Keep the stupid social stuff - the great thing about this is that it's going to decouple our computers from their input devices and displays. Integrate motion-sensing into this, and we'll be able to have any interfaces we want, with our entire field of vision being the display.

Of course, morons will still want to 'check-in' at their favorite hot dog stand and 'share' their 'tweets' with their 'circles' on 'Pinterest' or whatever is the new thing this week, but that's going to be just the tip of the iceberg.

Do these glasses work with Facebook?

Saves $ on traffic signals & signage, also makes gaming a lot more fun when another player on your gaming 'grid' is walking toward you on your side of the street while appearing to be a 50ft dragon... well, maybe I'm jumping ahead to the 2nd generation "full display" model ;0) Are the patent purchases and Motorola Mobility acquisitions coming clearer now... way to use the media jackal's & their poor reporting to cover your play Google!

we can let them drive google cars, cant wait till they take off, would be nice to be able to nap on a 1 hour drive... i will risk death because i despise driving.

 

[leakingpaint]

nooo! bad idea. People drive off cliffs while listening to their sat nav. They crash while using their phones and now this?! So many people are going to fall down stairs...

Moron here. Just confirming I am one because I for one would use this produce for social media, as well as whatever other functionality it will have.

You have to realise that this will be the new "iPhone", as much as you nerds will hate it. The majority of people won't care that you can "decouple our computers from their input and output devices". For this product to sell, they have to appeal to the masses. Moron.

want. looks cool, doubt it'll function like the video, but still want. augmented reality is likely the next thing. with any luck you an control it by touchmeans not just by voice command. if in the end it'll be a accessory to an android phone, or the phone and everything all in the glasses

Google will achieve its goal of obtaining even more private information about people. This will be the biggest gold mine for them.

Seen this idea for decades by University but Google can actually implement it just their privacy policy will make me shiver before using this.

@wemakeourfuture If Apple started researching this first then everyone would be shitting their pants about how innovative Apple is. But this is Google, so their only incentive is to mine data right? Ok.
