    Question Google Glass

    Google Glass

    What do you guys think of "Google Glass?" Do you think it is the wave of the future? Think we could incorporate it into a mask?

    You fill out the application here :

    and maybe you will be one of the lucky beta testers !

    I dont think it will work too good for people that wear glasses.

    I already have a Nexus 7 tablet, and I just ordered an LG Nexus 4 phone, so Google has enough of my money for now.

    Oh the many things I would do if given $1500. If only I had the money. (sigh)

    I think it would be very handy for certain things. However, I think either data plan prices would need to go down or that actually "free public wifi" would need to become a reality before Google Glass will really take off. Most of what you would do with Google Glass really wouldn't take that much bandwidth. It's the video sharing that would kill it, though. I really don't see this being that useful for paintball, other than for getting more accurate player's-eye-view recordings.

    You lack vision...


    How about an HUD section that feeds in data about bodies alive/dead during the game? Or even a map showing you the field and where your players are. A data feed from the tank showing you # of shots left. Or (pie in the sky) we have a way to show # of rounds left in your hopper.

    Gotta think big to get somewhere.

    These are going to change the way we live.... think about it. No more stand alone GPS boxes.. phone call info and txt messages going right to your eyes...the sky is the limit. The data plans and logistics will catch up. This is going to be big.
