Google glass was developed by Google in the Project Glass
research and development project to produce a mass-market ubiquitous computer.
It is a small stamp sized screen attached to a pair of eyeglass frames. When
Google Glass first started out, it was not generally a new idea for head-worn
augmented reality displays, however now it was backed by Google It had drawn
attention from the media to the design that they had created for it.
Let’s take a look at the progression they have made within
the previous year. In 2011 it weighed around roughly 8 pounds but now from
future creation and amendments it weighs just as light as a pair of regular
glasses.
Due to the creation and popularity of the Google Glass and
what it can do, advancements have come to what they can do to make it more
adjustable for the public and to put their own style to the Glass.
In early 2013 Google were working on models that can be used with prescription lenses. The models were to be available to testers just before the end of 2013. Now earlier this year they created and launched their Titanium collection.
They created and offered 40 different combinations of frames, shades and colours for users to customise their eyewear with. But this was not enough for them.
