Actually using Glass in a social setting is worse. If you're looking at someone, then look at the Glass display, the other person sees you kind of looking at them but not really.

I saw a piece on... I think it was The Verge? When Glass first came out. The guy was trying it out around the city, and the impression I got of him was a slightly awkward person who didn't want to meet people's eyes, and who looked embarrassed to be having his photo taken in every picture.

Then I watched the video and realised he's actually a confident presenter, it's just that in every picture he was looking at the glass display and that gives a really strange impression

Well no, just keep the same settings once you've set them, and use the on-board camera to see stuff.

But I mean, you want the things to recognise exactly what you're looking at, and know exactly which event it needs to trigger. Even if you could cover every situation you might run into, it would be pretty advanced AI that could say identify that you're looking at a business and go beep boop btw here are your infos. You're not asking for a cut down version, you're asking for a super advanced version that doesn't even need controls. Which would be cool, but y'know

Don't worry, at some point they'll add eye tracking and be able to tell exactly what you're looking at, and maybe even pop up some options to select by glancing at them.

Of course it's google so they'll be watching for exactly which ads hold your attention or make your eyes widen. Are you wearing the glass, or is the glass wearing you???

Does Google Goggles work on Glass yet? That's almost a Terminator interface, scanning line and all
