What They Say
Google published a blog saying that it plans to test more prototypes of glasses ‘in the real world’ from next month. It showed a video of a trial system, demonstrating translation, a couple of months ago. The testing will start with “a few dozen Googlers and select trusted testers”. The firm said:
“These prototypes will include in-lens displays, microphones and cameras — but they’ll have strict limitations on what they can do. For example, our AR prototypes don’t support photography and videography, though image data will be used to enable experiences like translating the menu in front of you or showing you directions to a nearby coffee shop.”
There’s a brief FAQ here.
What We Think
No need to remind regular readers of the furore that Google stirred up with its original glasses. (BR)
