“Project Glass” Concept & Key Features
The key-concept of “Project Glass” appears to be simplicity, with the UI being as minimalistic and clean as possible. The voice-controlled system integrates many well know Google products as well as typical Android features such as:
Photo- & video-camera Google Hangout based video-chat Google Maps integrated directions Voice-to-text messaging Google Now
The shades are removable, which implies the possible use of prescription-glasses (something I really hope for!). The futuristic glasses come in five different colors, namely charcoal, tangerine, shale, cotton and sky (black, red, grey, white or blue in non-marketing terms).
