Sergey Brin: Why Google Glass?

  • It's not a demo, more of a philosophical argument: Why did Sergey Brin and his team at Google want to build an eye-mounted camera/computer, codenamed Glass? Onstage at TED2013, Brin calls for a new way of seeing our relationship with our mobile computers -- not hunched over a screen but meeting the world heads-up.

    I love the reason they got invented too. People were too obviously occupied with their modern phones, so they made them into glasses so you can still be just as occupied with your little machine, but at least it looks like you're paying attention to the people around you.
    An old Nokia phone solves all those problems. You can basically only make calls and send messages with them. Nothing more. When you've sent your friend a message you put your phone down because you can't do anything else with it. It's genius, really. They were before their time.

    As he said, its a step in a certain direction from which they learned a lot. But I'm not convinced glass as it is will be as huge as some media try to hype (including their own marketing team). I must say I like his points and the energy with wich he talks.. Good talk imo

      Tim Lavey You couldn't be more wrong. Glass has actually forced me to get out of my comfort zone to do things and meet people I normally wouldn't have engaged. For being an 'artist' you are pretty closed minded. I use glass all the time on photoshoots, drawing from a first person perspective and exploring how this tech will change smart phone tech. While I am doing that, you are sculpting boobs.

    The extra small screen on the screen during the intro is already annoying me, I can't imagine how distracting and troublesome the actual glasses will be.

    • @aaron4820
      @aaron4820 Před 7 lety +1

      Not really, nobody is suggesting every movement / actions / experiences are recorded or broadcast, a device that's on your person like the glass simply gives you a more instant access to the ability to do so should something worthwhile arises, or when information is needed without having to be interrupted and look down at a small rectangle, whether it's in the form of Google glass or other device is inevitable, trouble is the glass was similar to VirtualBoy, the technology just wasn't there yet to implement the ... err, vision they had.

You fail to explain at all how it is different and expect me to just realize how obviously different they are when of course, I've already established that I don't see it that way. I think you simply missed the point of view here and I'm not saying whether he succeeded in selling it. I really don't care what YOU subscribed to see.
