Google unveiled to the world sometime in early April, their concept of augmented reality glasses, know as Project Glass. These far out there sci-fi glasses has the ability like none before to take video, check email, give you voice direction by connecting to maps and a host of other features. This futuristic piece of eye-wear also come with aesthetic sense and makes the wearer look good in addition to the feel good aspect of wearing eye-wear that can do a whole log of work for you. We have already written about these glasses and you can read about it here.
Google has now gone a step further and have released the first video shot entirely using Google Glasses. The video has someone from the Google team doing backflips on a trampoline. The video is shot in 720p and has decent quality. In addition to shooting video, Google Glasses can set your day up for you and can do almost anything a SmartPhone can. Google was the first to announce these AR Glasses (Augmented Reality) since then there are other companies who have also said they are working on AR Glasses themselves. So Google is not alone but are the only ones who seem to be making steady progress. There is no clue as to when these glasses would actually be available as it is still in the prototype stage. It could be sometime before their smartphone for the face is actually available for people to use.
