Project Glass: One day ... alpha (Inspired by)

Inspired by Google Project Glass, I combined a pair of Vuzix glasses, HD webcams and mic headset with an application written in Adobe Air. It harnesses the dragon naturally speaking engine so can perform full audio recognition.

The application uses Yahoo weather services to find local weather information. It can create appointments (only within app) using the full speech recognition. Also the app can take photos upload them and share them. Thanks Will Powell

You guys do realize that Vuzix glasses are the real magic here, right?

Do a web search on the glasses first before you make yourself sound stupid. Everything else here is just voice commands and pop-up icons. Assuming you guys know how these glasses work, how could this be fake?

It is real. Will works for Keytree and we have been working with this technology for a while - with some more advanced use cases, e.g. Kinect for interaction and also facial recognition. Hence Will was able to put this together very quickly. He'll follow up with a blog and more detail soon. It will be a while before this kind of thing is ready for consumers (although who knows with Google), but it will happen because it can - and there's enough interest it seems.

What brand of Vuzix Glasses did you use?

For instance: imagine AdBlock on your glasses. We could create a database and a heuristic algortihm to identify ads on the street, then replace them with blank boxes, or better yet; beautiful artwork!

Or one could implement a navigation software by combining AR-glasses with google maps, GPS and a compass to have the correct path drawn on top of the very road you're walking on. This is already reality on android phones!

This is kinda nice and realistic, but it really doesn't utilize anything that's really cool about AR. It's one thing to have a display on your glasses, but a whole new universe when such a display is used to augment reality!

Im expecting or at least hoping Project Glass does way more than this demonstration especially if software is available to create your own apps. Articulated Naturality Web should be good competition as well..

Yeah, my last comment was total B.S., and I can speak English perfectly, however, I had no idea what I was commenting hahaha. I just despise clones of someone else's work, like the video demonstrates.
