I can't find any info on how to write a Glass app that actually interacts with the camera or does geolocation. Am I missing something?

    Parent's link is how to get media onto the Glass device. Here is how you get media from the Glass to your server: https://developers.google.com/glass/v1/reference/timeline/attachments/get https://developers.google.com/glass/v1/reference/timeline/at...

  You can get a user's geolocation (https://developers.google.com/glass/location https://developers.google.com/glass/location). Couldn't find anything about the camera. However, the API doesn't seem to offer any way to run code on the actual device aka "apps".

    It looks like the Mirror API allows you to register callbacks, like Android Intents, to handle events like 'position changed' or 'new photo'. They're really locking down user interaction on the device itself, probably due to processor power, and to keep the experience consistent. Not that I agree with them, but they definitely look afraid of getting a bad name if some devs produce crap - hence the very limited scope.
