I have to feel v2 will, given the possibilities of applications as demoed here.
- DanBC 13y agoGoogle glass only outputs to one eye, so 3d vision isn't possible. 3d input is still useful, but less fun.
- devindotcom 13y agoFurthermore, Glass doesn't put itself 'over' the world, but out of the way - it's not about augmented reality. That's part of why I think its approach is ultimately going to be abandoned.
- Schwolop 13y agoDepth cameras using infra-red projection aren't going to work outside due to solar saturation, so I think Google would be foolish not to embed a second camera and enable stereo vision. It's the only light-weight and low-power way to get depth information in a glasses form factor. In principle (assuming some off-device computation), you could run SLAM and get a decent estimate of head orientation to then do AR with Google's glasses. Unlikely in the near future, but inevitable at some point.
