It might be a challenge but there's no need to completely dismiss the possibility. Here is a $5 keychain that can record for 1.5 hours. http://www.amazon.com/808-Car-Chain-Camera-Recorder/dp/B0084... I'm

Consider that it happens regularly every couple of years, especially when you have multiple smoke alarms. Then if you have high-ceilings it makes it much more difficult (have to go get a ladder in the middle of the night). It will freak kid

It doesn't seem like that would be too difficult to offload most of that processing to a smartphone. I think they made a mistake not making Glass an accessory for Android rather than it's own device. It also wouldn't be impos

This "problem" can pretty easily be fixed with a more flexible frame and a slim carrying case. It's prototype hardware that you are critiquing. Google Glass is more than just the hardware, it's the software and combinati

Will Glass allow for an augmented reality experience using the camera? From what I've read there are limits on what apps can access and when they can use the camera. I envision being able to look at an object (or person) and have a box

I think the one you're missing that is most important is the current state of battery technology. Notice how the indoor version of BigDog has a tether for power and the outdoor has a very loud engine. That noise hardly acceptable on th

Awesome product! The beginning of the video needs to be redone, stop switching the camera angle and get rid of the techno music. I'd recommend starting the video with a timelapse of a printing with some basic explanation audio.

I think the difference is "armed" verses "guns drawn". You can't expect anyone to raid an allegedly illegal operation or building or confront someone without at least having a weapon on them. A gun in my face or poi

What you stated doesn't really provide a good reason for not providing sources. Imagine turning in a paper to a professor without sources and telling them that they should verify the information themselves.

These sort of minor patents should either be invalid or only valid for a couple of years at the most. It's the same as saying one phones corners can't be perfectly round or icons can be on a certain side of the screen.

"First 500 MB of data at up to 4G speed" Basically don't watch tons of videos or stream and excessive amount of music over the mobile network and it'll be no problem. Anyways, for $10 more you can get 2.5 GB of 4G data,
