What is Google Glass?

WHAT IS IT?

“The Internet of Things (IoT) is a scenario in which objects, animals or people are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to automatically transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. IoT has evolved from the convergence of wireless technologies, micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) and the Internet.” source http://goo.gl/V52Y6r

• Real Time Metrics

• Access to data

• Video Capture – hands free

• The company says customers are given customized versions of Glass that disable consumer-facing apps which are believed to send information to Google's servers. The idea is to have all information stay within the enterprise and not going back to Google’s servers. In addition, a custom dictionary is believed to be added to the platform to help Glass’s voice recognition platform understand energy industry-specific firms (though Wearable Intelligence refused to confirm this). As Feiger put it, “You just can’t expect Glass to work out-of-box in an oil field.”

HIGHER EDUCATION IS AN IMPORTANT AREA FOR EXPERIMENTATION WITH GLASS AND OTHER WEARABLES, NOT ONLY BECAUSE THEY ENHANCE TEACHING, BUT BECAUSE THEY HELP US UNDERSTAND HOW WE SHOULD BEST INTERACT WITH AND INCORPORATE THESE TECHNOLOGIES INTO OUR SOCIETY'S FUTURE.

Melissa Woo, Vice Provost for Information Services and CIO at the University of Oregon and an early Google Glass Explorer stresses that higher education has a vital role to play in the field of wearable computing, that goes beyond just using the technology.
