This Is How "They" Plan To See Through Your Eyes (Literally)

Short Film “Sight” Shows Us The Dark Side Of Project Glass-Like Technology

By Josh Wolford · July 27, 2012 · 3 Comments

Much of the talk around the tech world recently has been focused on Project Glass – aka Google Glasses – the wearable heads of display that many think could revolutionize the way we interact with apps, photos, video, and really the internet in general.

But Google’s not the only company that’s dying to put a computer on your face. Even Apple seems to have joined the fray, recently patenting their own little version of Google Glasses.

Great Film! Well Done! Weird, but not too far of a Stretch. Futuristic, but not too Far Away! Scarey and all too Real!:O It's already in your Phone and Computer and you probably installed it Your Self!

This Is How Google Plans To See Through Your Eyes (Literally)

By Chris Crum · 9 hours ago · 23 Comments

Google has captured many imaginations with Project Glass, and the device will not even be available to consumers until next year at the earliest. Wearing a Google Glass in front of your eye may be your ticket to a futuristic world you never thought you’d live to see, and it could do some really amazing things. Or it could be a huge disappointment, and bring back feelings you experienced when Nintendo’s Virtual Boy came out years ago.

Either way, one thing seems clear. To users of Google Glass, Google is going to be more up close and personal than ever before. That not only means Google pushing things in front of your eye, but potentially also users sending things back to Google.

What do you think about Google Glass? Do you want Google seeing what you see? Let us know in the comments.

Google co-founder Sergey Brin reportedly posted a limited Google+ update to those who ordered the special “Explorer Edition” of Glass, which developers were able to do at Google I/O last month. He included the above image, and said:

I wanted to share this photo with you that I took on a drive in Montana. I was testing a new mode of Glass which automatically takes a picture every 10 seconds without any distraction or disruption. Afterwards, I checked Instant Upload to see how the images had turned out and this one really caught my eye – I love the composition of the landscape mixed with sunlight and the beauty of the sky. I never would have captured this moment without Glass.

Think about that for a second. You’re wearing Google Glass, and Google is able to take pictures rapidly (who’s to say that can’t get it down to even less time than 10 seconds), and they’re instantly uploaded to Google’s servers. This is effectively Google storing the world as seen through your eyes.
