Implementing the idea of wearable computing with the

help of Augmented Display and Virtual Reality

09-11-20134

INTRODUCTION

*Google Glass - wearable computer

with an OHMD

* Developed by R&D Dept of Google

(Google X)

* To reduce delay between intention

and action

* Camera, display, touchpad, battery

and microphone built into spectacle

frame

09-11-20135

Google Glass vs Other HMDs & HUDs

• Privacy for the user

• Compact and very easy to use

• Google support

• Design that suits into any frame

• Voice controlled

TECHNOLOGIES USED

09-11-20136

Virtual Reality

• computer-

simulated environment that can

simulate physical presence

• Displayed through computer

screen or through special

stereoscopic displays

• Speakers, headphones, force

feedback also used

• Gaming, Simulations for pilot

training

09-11-20137

Augmented Display

• view of a real-world environment

supplemented by computer

generated sensory input

• sports scores on TV ,Nokia City

Lens

Bone conduction

• conduction of sound through the

bones of the skull

• high-pitched sounds makes

segment of skull to vibrate

individually

• sensory cells percives them

WHY GOOGLE GLASS

Say “take a picture” to take a picture

09-11-201319

Share what you see. Live

09-11-201320

Directions right in front of you

09-11-201321

Speak to send a message

09-11-201322

Ask whatever’s on your mind.

09-11-201323

Translate your voice
