Google Glass is apparently back from the dead, starts getting software updates
- tetraodonpuffer 9y agoI find this use case interesting (linked from the comments in the ars article) https://www.augmedix.com/ https://www.augmedix.com/ having the doctor wear google glass while a "remote scribe" takes notes for the doctor to sign off on later.
- ocdtrekkie 9y agoI suspect this is the sort of thing where someone at Google is still using theirs, has access to the code via the monorepo, decided to do some updates (maybe over a while) to fix issues they were having, and then decided to get the bureaucracy taken care of to push it out to everyone. I don't think there's much (any?) chance of this being a sudden renewed interest in Google supporting the device.
- segmondy 9y agoAnyone know where I can get one for a reasonable amount?
- zghst 9y agoAR is coming back in a big way, maybe not through the glasses at first, Google’s miscalculation was not seeing the phone as the starting point in this technical evolution. As soon as the phone platform gets good enough, its time to jump to apparel. This company -> http://aipoly.com http://aipoly.com <- is really onto a great use case for AR products, although I think their product could use a lot more work to be more applicable.
