Google glasses, conjointly called Google spectacles and Google Goblet, are not like the other product out which is now running in market. It's got all of the traits of an computer, cell phone, product, ipad's ,tablets, GPS Navigation technique, digital camera and much more in a very tiny piece of glass as well as elegant figure. We can point out that Google Goblet is really a wearable computer using a head-mounted exhibit (HMD) that's being manufactured by Google.Google Goblet exhibits details in a very smart phone-like hands-free format, that can interact with the online world by tongue voice commands.While the frames don't presently have lenses fitted to them, Google is thinking about partnerships with sunglass retailers like Ray-Ban or Warby Parker, & will conjointly open retail stores to permit customers to do on the tool.Glass is being developed by Google x,which has worked on alternative art movement technologies like driverless cars.Google has proprietary the look of that Glass.

l  The main features are as follows:

Camera

Google Glass has the power to capture photos and record 720p HD video  whereas video is recording, a recording light is shown above the eye, which is unnoticeable to the user.

Touchpad

The side of Google Glass is a touch pad, permitting clients to control the mechanism by swiping through a course of events like interface showed on the screen.

Voice actions

Other than the touch pad, Google Glass could be regulated utilizing "voice commands". To actuate Glass, wearers tilt their heads upward or say "O.k., Glass." Once Glass is initiated, wearers can say a commands, like "Take a picture" or  "Record a movie".

Applications (Glassware)

Google Glass requisitions (Glassware) are free requisitions manufactured by third-gathering planners. Glass likewise utilizes numerous existing Google requisitions, for example Google Now, Google Maps, Google+, and G mail. Many planners and associations have assembled requisitions for Glass, incorporating news applications, facial detection, photograph control, and offering to informal communities, for example Facebook and Twitter.

Benefits Of Google Glass:

Learn new languages

One of the major characteristics of Google Glass is to exhibit message based interpretations progressively. This might be accommodating in dialect studying courses as learners might have the profit of ongoing translating of dialects. Learners of diverse societies might have the capacity to encourage one another in studying new dialects. The procedure of interpretation might be enhanced as Google Glass gets consummated with time after its presentation.

Quick on-the-go research

With Google Glass, peoples can have an internet browser out there within the air in the slightest degree times, aand they can utilize it for seeking informative content, bookmarking vital pages for later utilize and significantly more. New apps for the Glass would enable peoples to create use of social media channels and different resources like Drop-box and

e-mail to avoid wasting and share their analysis with very little or no trouble.

Help creating presentations and research materials

Google Glass can shoot snappy movies and pictures. This might be accommodating for student's when they're getting ready a few sorts of presentations or archiving research as they can catch image substance without breaking a sweat. Quick paced recording and shooting can improve both innovativeness and gainfulness.

I surmise that the value will be out of the extent of generally individuals at first, as the business sector grips this innovation, costs will descend. Like other new innovations, it will probably take a while.

We are technology slave. 



 Application of knowledge to the practical aims of human life, or to changing and manipulating the human environment. Technology includes the use of materials, tools, techniques, and sources of power to make life easier or more pleasant and work more productive. Whereas science is concerned with how and why things happen, technology focuses on making things happen. Technology began to influence human Endeavour as soon as people began using tools. It accelerated with the Industrial Revolution and the substitution of machines for animal and human labour. Accelerated technological development has also had costs, in terms of air and water pollution and other undesirable environmental effects. We are living in a society which is called "technologically civilized" society. Every small work we do is technology dependent. Today every other person is recognized with the device or gadget, he carries; which is technically advanced. Ultimately, we can say that,"living without technology is like living without air" in this technical world of today. Therefore, we are much dependent on technology. Technology is in everything and everywhere. It's in your house, your school, in stores, and even at the park. It's in your shower, in your sprinklers, in your ceiling fans and of course in your iPods, T.V.'s, computers and laptops and smart phones. We use some form of technology in almost everything we do, yet we've never noticed. You cook on a stove, right? Warm up something in the microwave? You have both a cold and a hot water tap. You drive or ride in a car, don't you? Technology is all around us. Technology has replaced things like books and magazines. It's also replaced CDs, tapes, and records. Heck, it's even replaced tape and glue! Now, everything is done digitally. Even shopping! Technology made our lives simple but much dependent on it. We can sit in a corner and get connected to the world. Thus making the world a "global community." Communicate with a person in remote area within fraction of seconds; make a trip of the world within no time, all these are possible with the advanced technology, making us more dependent on its usage. Throughout history, technological innovations have helped humankind improve their standards of living, beginning with the simple invention of bone tools of prehistoric times, continuing on to and beyond modern air conditioners, automobiles, and super computers. Nowadays, when the rapidness of development and research is so impressive, it is easy to think about the advantages of modern technology. In today's world, where just about everything is more convenient and accessible due to advances in technology across almost all sectors, it may seem as though it's a misnomer to even mention any disadvantages of technological advances. However, despite how far technology has taken humans and no matter how convenient it may make things, there are some disadvantages accompanying this level of access. Positive effects of technology: Technology advances show people a more efficient way to do things, and these processes get results. For example, education has been greatly advanced by the technological advances of computers. Students are able to learn on a global scale without ever leaving their classrooms. Agricultural processes that once required dozens upon dozens of human workers can now be automated, thanks to advances in technology, which means cost-efficiency for farmers. Medical discoveries occur at a much more rapid rate, thanks to machines and computers that aid in the research process and allow for more intense educational research into medical matters. Modern technology has solved many problems that people face and play an important role in the development of many countries. Modern technologies create many kinds of products - computers, cloning technology, and video games etc.. Technology today has made life better and quicker In our modern society, people can't see themselves without computers, cell phones, voice mail...etc... As we look at technologies, questions are risen. The Technological progress make our society more convenient and safe. Making impossible things possible are similar features of the change which previous people have experienced by social change, like shifting from a hunting society to an agricultural society and establishing a commercial society due to the invention of new tools. To consider these advantages and change of society, modern technology, which we use today, might be not only a new tool but also the tool, which makes a dramatic change in history. However, the contribution of modern technology to society should not be eliminated and should be distributed evenly. Negative effects of technology The more advanced society becomes technologically, the more people begin to depend on computers and other forms of technology for everyday existence. This means that when a machine breaks or a computer crashes, humans become almost disabled until the problem is resolved. This kind of dependency on technology puts people at a distinct disadvantage, because they become less self-reliant. We are becoming too dependent on technology. People losing their jobs, the difference in people’s writing and socially awkwardness from others. People lose jobs because there is a machine that does the same as an employee, Socially awkwardness is from twitter and Facebook. People barely use the telephone anymore to speak to their friends and family. We are becoming more and more isolated as well as dependent on technology to take care of our inconveniences. When in reality, people don't see that what is convenient, may be or become too convenient. Today , we don't find even a single young kid without using the available technology to him/her. Technology made us dependent on it and we can't expect or imagine a life without using the word "technology" in it .Hence, technology plays a major role in our lives. Well I believe that Technology is like a coin which has both positive and negative sides. We are the deciders and we have to choose how to use it. The usage of technology for over exploitation of resources should be always avoided. If we use it for positive things, it will have positive effect of our lives and vice versa. Nobody would oppose the development of technologies in any sector but the developments should be in a positive way and they should not have any negative impact on present or future generations.
