Everyday Google Glass wearers use the device to:

1) take photos and videos; 2) send messages; 3) get directions; 4) search for places on map or in Google Maps; 5) check email; 6) listen to music and podcasts; 7) record their voice using voice commands. 1) Take Photos and Videos - Many users of Google Glass are able to take photos, shoot video, and upload images right from their eye view. 2) Send Messages - Using a built-in keyboard, one can easily text anyone they want. 3) Get Directions - With the integrated GPS service, one can type in a destination to find out where they need to go next.

4) Search Places On Map or In Google Maps - By typing an address into the map app on your phone you can also see that address come up with turn-by-turn navigation through your glasses' display screen. 5) Check Email - Whether it be Gmail, Yahoo!, Outlook, AOL mail...you name it! It's possible to connect your smartphone account to your Glass headset and have all of those notifications pop up as well. 6) Listen To Music And Podcasts - Allowing you to tune in and tune out at any moment, Google Glass has many features built-in like Pandora, Spotify, or SoundCloud. 7) Record Your Voice - Wanting some audio without being seen? One can say ok glass followed by record a video or record audio in order to secretly do just that!

 

The Oculus Rift

I am stoked about this technology because it can really enhance my gaming experience and make me feel like I am really in the game world. It is also a good way for me to get out of bed after staying up late playing games on my computer or video games console! The Rift is lightweight, which makes it easy to wear, but I think that all the straps could get annoying after a while, so you should probably just buy an elastic strap so you don't have to keep adjusting it throughout the day. It's kind of pricey at $600 US Dollars, but you have to consider how much time and effort went into making this headset; plus the company is planning on releasing more models with better displays and performance over time for $300-400 US Dollars each. Overall, I think that this piece of technology has great potential if they keep improving on their design and work out any bugs as soon as possible! I'm not sure if these goggles are supposed to be used by kids too because I might break them if I sat on them, but maybe there is a model meant for kids? They would be perfect for amusement parks where you can sit down and put them on instead of waiting in line!

I think the Oculus Rift will revolutionize gaming industry and encourage developers to produce immersive games that everyone wants to play. However, this invention doesn't seem like something I will use very often outside of VR compatible games because most everyday tasks require sight and wearing these goggles would be awkward.

The Apple Watch is a revolutionary new technology that will change the way we live, work, and play. It's been called the most personal device ever created. It's also the most versatile and useful smartwatch ever. The Apple Watch combines functionality and style in one truly innovative package. With its beautiful curved design and many customizable options, it fits comfortably with any outfit or occasion. And now Apple Watch has a cellular connection. That means you can go for a run with just your watch or leave your phone at home when you travel abroad. The possibilities are endless. - Music: Download your favorite playlist for offline listening. - Activity: Measure calories burned, distance traveled, and time spent exercising. - Passbook: Instantly redeem coupons from Passbook without having to use a code or show your card to the cashier. - Maps: Get directions on the go (no need to find an internet connection) and measure distances between two points on map while still getting turn-by-turn navigation guidance as before. - Calls: Take calls right from your wrist so you never miss an important call again--even if you don't have your phone handy! You can answer or reject calls with text messages--and even make calls via Siri voice control.

Sony has taken an interesting approach with their newest innovation, the Smart Eyeglass. This device is an entirely new way of interacting with technology, by creating a new layer of information and interaction directly in front of your eyes. Wearers can see notifications and messages from their phone, get directions from Google Maps, or stream video from YouTube all while staying hands-free. The Smart Eyeglass also features a built-in camera for capturing memories on the go and the ability to take pictures or record videos just by tapping on the side of your eyewear. The integrated headband allows the device to be worn comfortably throughout the day without becoming heavy. It also folds up into a portable case that you can put away in your pocket or purse when not in use so it’s always at hand when you need it. In this new world where everyone is constantly looking down at their phones, it's nice to know there's a futuristic way to stay connected without being glued to the screen.

The LG G Watch is one of the latest and most anticipated Android Wear devices. It will be available in a variety of styles and colors, so it's sure to fit your personal style. It features a 1.65-inch display, which is larger than the 1,280x720 display on the Samsung Gear Live (1.63 inches), but smaller than the 1,440x960 display on the Moto 360 (1.37 inches). The LG G Watch also has an IP67 rating for water resistance up to three feet for 30 minutes. This means that you can take this watch into the shower or wear it while washing dishes without having to worry about damaging it! And with its built-in pedometer, activity monitor, heart rate sensor and fitness app, the LG G Watch is perfect for all those health nuts out there who want to keep track of their daily activities. In addition, users will be able to download apps from Google Play like Uber and Lyft right onto the device. And with a 400mAh battery, users should have enough power to get through at least two days before needing a recharge. Other specifications include Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy technology, as well as accelerometer, gyroscope and proximity sensors for detecting motion and location.

 The Galaxy Gear will be compatible with Samsung's new flagship phone, the Galaxy Note 3, as well as a slew of other Android devices. It features a 1.6-inch touchscreen, as well as an assortment of sensors that can measure your heart rate, among other things. There are also two cameras on board, which means you'll be able to do all sorts of neat tricks like take pictures and record video while the watch is on your wrist. Unfortunately, there's no word yet about whether it will come in a variety of colors, but we're holding out hope! We're really looking forward to hearing what people think of this next generation technology. If you've got questions about how it works, stay tuned for more blog posts coming soon.
