Google Glass is a wearable computer with an optical head-mounted display that is voice-activated and allows the user to interact with the internet hands-free. It uses technologies like augmented reality, 4G, Android, and an eye tap camera to display information and respond to voice commands. While Google Glass provides easy access to information and assistance, concerns exist around privacy, safety, and health effects of prolonged use.
