Google Glass And Augmented Reality

Introduction

Google Glass is a wearable display that overlays data on the user’s view of the real world. It’s like having a display on your head. The user turns his head to look at an object, but the object is not there. So this creates some problems. Why not just use a smartphone? Smartphones are getting pretty small these days, too. In fact, if you’re looking for something more immersive than a smartphone, Google has another product called Cardboard that can turn any smartphone into an augmented reality device

Google Glass is a wearable display that overlays data on the user’s view of the real world. It looks like a pair of glasses, but with an information screen in front of one eye (the right side). The user turns his head to look at an object, but instead of seeing that object with its normal shape and color, he sees something else: text describing it or perhaps an image taken by Google Glass itself.

The user turns his head to look at an object, but the object is not there. So this creates some problems.

The user must be able to see the object before they can interact with it. This is a problem for Google Glass because the user cannot see through the glasses without taking them off and looking at something else in order to see what they are interacting with (or having someone else show them).

Why not just use a smartphone?

But why not just use a smartphone? The problem with smartphones is that they’re not as immersive, accurate or powerful.

Smartphones don’t have the same level of detail as Google Glass because they only have one eye to see the world with (and if you’re reading this on your phone right now then you know how hard it can be to focus on something small). They also don’t have an advanced tracking system that lets them know exactly where in space your head is located at any given moment so they can bring up relevant information without having to guess where it should appear relative to where your eyes are looking. This lack of precision makes for awkward interactions between user and device–you might find yourself looking down at a tiny icon instead of directly at what’s important around you! And finally: smartphones aren’t nearly as fashionable as Google Glass either…

Smartphones are getting pretty small these days, too. In fact, if you’re looking for something more immersive than a smartphone, Google has another product called Cardboard that can turn any smartphone into an augmented reality device.

The smartphone is getting smaller and more powerful by the day. In fact, if you’re looking for something more immersive than a smartphone, Google has another product called Cardboard that can turn any smartphone into an augmented reality device.

The idea behind Cardboard is simple: it’s a DIY kit that turns your phone into an AR device with the help of cardboard, lenses and magnets (to hold everything together). You can buy one from Google or make one yourself using their instructions here – either way, once assembled it will allow you to view all kinds of apps made specifically for this purpose on your phone’s display through its lens system which makes them appear three-dimensional (or “augmented”).

VR vs AR

Virtual reality, or VR, is a computer-generated simulation of a 3D environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly real or physical way. Augmented reality (AR) is a live view of the real world with computer graphics superimposed on it.

VR offers an immersive experience where you can explore new worlds and interact with them in ways not possible in real life. However, because all your senses are engaged when using VR technology, it can cause nausea or dizziness if used for too long without breaks. AR allows users to remain connected to their surroundings while still enjoying some benefits from immersive experiences like gaming or education; however, there’s no sense of “being there” like with VR devices because you’re still seeing through your own eyes rather than wearing special goggles like those needed for viewing virtual worlds around themselves.

Virtual reality puts you in a different world – 3D graphics, 360-degree view etc. – while augmented reality enhances your real world environment by putting virtual objects into it.

Virtual reality (VR) is a completely different experience than augmented reality (AR). VR puts you in a different world – 3D graphics, 360-degree view etc. – while AR enhances your real world environment by putting virtual objects into it.

Augmented Reality is more like having a display on your head that shows information about what’s going on around you (like how many steps are left until your next appointment), while Virtual Reality replaces everything with computer-generated imagery and sounds that make it feel like you’re somewhere else entirely.

While there are some limitations with current AR technology like Google Glass, these problems will likely be solved in coming years and we’ll have our first truly usable AR device soon!

It’s important to understand that augmented reality has different forms and uses. For example:

  • Virtual Reality (VR) is a computer-generated simulation of a three-dimensional image or environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly real or physical way through special electronic equipment, such as headsets with screens inside them or gloves fitted with sensors. The user feels like they’re actually partaking in this virtual world when they wear one of these devices on their head or body respectively; however it doesn’t exist outside your headset/gloves so other people won’t see what you do while using it unless they also have one on themselves!

Conclusion

Google Glass is a great product, but it’s not perfect. It has some limitations and there are other companies working on similar products that might be better suited for your needs. But no matter what happens with Google’s AR glasses or other devices like them, it’s clear that augmented reality is here to stay!
