Wearables Overview

What is wearable technology?
• Wearable technology, tech togs, or fashion electronics are clothing and
accessories incorporating computer and advanced electronic
technologies.
Where/When did it start?
• In the 1600’s a fully functional Abacus Ring was worn.
• In the 1800’s a woman’s timepiece that “computes time”.
• More recently – the first International Symposium on Wearable Computers
took place in 1997, Boston, MA.

Google Glass Hardware
15
Projector
The primary display of Glass is a rear
projector that projects an image into a
Glass Cube that is situated above the
wearers right eye
Touch Pad and Camera Button
Although the primary control of Glass is intended to be voice,
a touchpad exists to help navigate through cards and menus.
This is a multitouch touchpad that allows for 2 points of touch.
Camera
Glass has a 5MP
camera capable of
shooting video at
720p
Main Housing
Glass contains an impressive amount of hardware inside
of its main housing. This includes a WiFi Radio (b/g) and

RAM, OMAP 4430 CPU (Dual Core ARM Cortex A9
clocked at 1GHZ). gyroscope, allelerominitor and more.
Battery

your ears free
Plastic and Titanium

Google Glass Software

Android at the Heart but designed to be simple and unobtrusive.

18
Who knew that the simple Index Card would be making such a stunning comeback in 2013!
Home Card
Presented everytime Glass is
turned on. By simply muttering
"Ok Glass", you activate
Glass's voice controls.
Directions Card
Powered by Google Now, Glass can provide you with directions when you
need them. If you have an appointment in your calendar or your daily
commute, Google Now's Directions have you covered. As an added bonus,
any location searched on Google Maps will automatically be added as a card
for easy navigation. A simple tap activates the Glass Navigation System
Glass Navigation System
Glass has one of the best Navigation Systems around, it is simply a
pleasure to use. Glass's navigation system has 3 modes (Walking/Biking or
Driving) and more to follow. If you have ever used an Android Phone's GPS,
this should be both a welcomed and familiar change.

have to use this one.

Developers Welcomed:
Glass takes an unorthodox approach to the development of Glass
Applications (Glassware). Glass has a 100% cloud based API known as the
Mirror API. This essentially allows developers to create applications in any
language they want and simply send JSON encoded data to Google API to
be displayed on a users Glass.
Voice Commands:
• “ok glass, google…”
• “ok glass, take a picture…”
• “ok glass, record a video…”
• “ok glass, get directions to…”
• “ok glass, send a message to…”
• “ok glass, make a call to…”
• “ok glass, hang out with…”
• “ok glass, post an update…” (Path)
• “ok glass, take a note…” (Evernote)

Use of Glass
23
Ground Rules:
• Be Careful – the unit is not easy (improbable?) to replace & was costly.
• Take photo of yourself wearing Glass or ask that someone else take
the photo. These tend to make geeky friends jealous on social
networks!
• Ask permission to take photos of others with Glass.
