Google Glass is an augmented reality project that allows users to access information by projecting images and data onto an eyeglass-style frame. It utilizes voice commands and has a camera, microphone, and screen. While promising hands-free access to notifications and media, privacy and safety concerns remain issues to address as the technology develops further.
Project Glass is a research and development program by Google to develop an augmented reality Head-Mounted Display (HMD). The intended purpose of Project Glass products would be the hands-free displaying of information currently available to most Smartphone users, and allowing for interaction with the Internet via natural language voice commands. These glasses will have the combined features of virtual reality and augmented reality. Google glasses are basically wearable computers that will use the same Android software that powers Android Smartphone and tablets.
The emergence of Google Glass, a prototype for a transparent Heads-Up Display (HUD) worn over one eye, is significant on several levels. It is the first conceptualization of a mainstream augmented reality wearable eye display playing out in a viral marketing campaign. Google Glass will enable us to capture video, let us interact with personal contacts, and navigate maps, amongst other things. It has been provocative enough to scare both Apple and Microsoft, who had been issuing patents for augmented reality products of their own . However, most salient of all is the way Google Glass is framed in media as the brainchild of Sergey Brin, the American computer scientist of Russian descent who co-founded Google. Brin is also celebrated in online articles as a real life “Batman,” who is developing a secret facility resembling the “Batcave”. This paper argues that Glass’s birth is not only a marketing phenomenon heralding a technical prototype, it also suggests and speculates that Glass’s popularization is an instigator for the adoption of a new paradigm in Human- Computer Interaction (HCI), the wearable eye display. Glass’s process of adoption operates in the context of mainstream and popular culture discourses, a phenomenon that warrants attention.
Google Glass is as futuristic a gadget we’ve seen in recent times. A useful technology for all kinds of people including handicapped/disabled.

This presentation will help you to understand better the working of Google glass the innovation that makes changes in the world and bring new innovation to you
Here is the new Google glass seminar presentation of office-2013.A new report suggests Google Glass will get a complete redesign for version two. Google Glass captured our imagination with the idea of Internet-connected smart glasses, but delivering on that promise feels further away than ever.

The Google Glass operating system is based on a version of Android, and it can run apps called Glassware that are optimized for the device. The glasses have built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and a camera for taking photographs and videos

Google Glass is a wearable computer with an optical head-mounted display (OHMD) that is being developed by Google in the Project Glass research and development project.
It includes voice-controlled Android device that resembles a pair of eyeglasses and displays information directly in the user's field of vision.It offers an augmented reality experience by using visual, audio and location-based inputs to provide relevant information.
Information is more than ever geolocated, but who decides what we see on maps? who curates that information? Maps have never been neutral, but now they are ubiquitous.
This session will be a hands on workshop to enter the maps world and understand how communities can produce and edit their own maps (with openstreetmap.org) and edit and curate information above them (meipi.org).
The workshop will explore ways to integrate critical maps created in other platforms and websites.
Description
Have you ever wanted to make your own map but you didn't know how? Do you want to use your GPS/smart phone? People usually approach maps as inert things, as invariable objects. Now, it's easy to make your own maps and meanwhile understand that maps are not neutral, that Google Maps is not The Map, but just another map. GPS devices and smart phones, DIY aerial cartography (the Public Laboratory), OpenStreetMap map making, are making easier building maps and sharing them. BYO laptop, smartphone or GPS, but if you don't have one, come anyway. Maps can be drawn with a pencil.

Mr. Chamnan will be speaking about How to Benefit from Google Maps. Google Maps is a map service that you view in desktop and mobile web application. Depending on your location, you can view basic or custom maps and local business information, including business locations, contact information, and driving directions. According to Google, 97 percent of customers shop for local businesses online, and in the world of apps, Google Maps is a heavy hitter. It’s the most popular smartphone app out there, with over 54 percent of smartphone users who use apps using it to get where they need to go. If you have a physical retail location you can’t afford to ignore this easy and free way to – literally and figuratively – get your business on the map. When your business is listed, you help your customers find you through different Google channels such as Maps, Search and Google+ and drive more traffic to your business. How it benefits to personal, business and social!

Vehicle tracking system using gps and google mapsanchit bhargava
This project describe how vehicle can be tracked through help of GPS (Global Positioning System) and then using Google Map we can easily put coordinates on the map to find exact locations. with that a software which monitoring every routine of vehicle.
We live in the age of the digital packet. Documents, images, music, phone calls all get chopped up, propelled through networks, and reassembled at the other end according to Internet protocol. So why not TV? Today, IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) is creating headlines all over the world. This mass publicity is the result of numerous instances and stories depicting its humble deployments and its future. IPTV is a very useful system, through which you can receive both TV and video signals along with other multimedia services by means of your Internet connection. In nutshell, it is nothing but a broadband connection and a system to deliver various programs of television using the Internet protocol (i.e., language) over computer networks. It is important to remember that IPTV is not like any ordinary television program broadcast through the Internet, but rather it is unique in itself. Its contour is represented by a closed, proprietary TV system which is similar to the cable services present today. But, in contrast, the delivery of IPTV is made via IP-based secure channels, which result in a sharp increase in content distribution control.
