Google GLΛSS - Wearable Computer

Google Glass (styled as "Google GLΛSS") is a wearable computer with a head-mounted display (HMD) that is being developed by Google in the Project Glass research and development project, with the mission of producing a mass-market ubiquitous computer. Google Glass displays information in a smartphone-like hands-free format, that can interact with the Internet via natural language voice commands. While the frames do not currently have lenses fitted to them, Google is considering partnering with sunglass retailers such as Ray-Ban or Warby Parker, and may also open retail stores to allow customers to try on the device.  The Explorer Edition cannot be used by; the glasses will be modular and therefore possibly attachable to normal prescription glasses.

The Explorer Edition is available to testers and Google I/O developers in the United States for $1,500, to be delivered in early 2013, while a consumer version will be available by the end of 2013 for "significantly less" than the Explorer Edition.

Google is currently working on models that can be used with prescription lenses. Google stated that it will not be ready for the Explorer Edition of Glass; however, consumers can expect it later in 2013
