This document discusses Google Glass and the future of wearable technology. It begins with an overview of the shift towards an "era of context" driven by sensors and ubiquitous connectivity. It then provides details on Google Glass, including its hardware specifications, main functions, and architecture. Several use cases for Glass are presented, such as augmented reality applications, Google Now cards, navigation, and enterprise solutions. The document concludes with a discussion of expected future developments and challenges for wearable devices like improved versions of Glass and addressing privacy and security issues.

24. How Google Glass
started!
At Google Zeitgeist 2010
in London we showed
Larry Page Layar running
on Lumus AR glasses.
Functionality:
- Indoor map
- Compass & GPS based
- POI’s displayed
He said: “Cool!” ;-)
