I have always been a fan of Science. It makes me understand and appreciate Reality and Life from the humblest perspective. It is my Candle in the Dark.
Technology is gift. It is a product of the mind. It consequently transforms culture and its people from Lifestyles to Medical advancements. I read somewhere that technology is like hammer. It can be really useful but also be destructive. It all lies on the purpose of that person. I generally benefit from it and I try to take advantage of it whenever possible and needed.
I like watching films and my thought of isolating just the Video Subject from the others around it would be perfect for my experience because other visual things in my line of sight are a distraction. This kind of technology has been imagined apparently since the 1860s. In the 1960's, developers have introduced a visual flight simulator for the Air Force. In the 1980's, Game Developers came up with interactive Virtual Gaming Systems for consumers.
Ever since I heard about Smart Glasses, I started doing my research. I searched in Google and Youtube all the articles that are related to Virtual, Augmented Reality and Video Eyewear. Stumbled upon Vuzix and its interesting products. Quite excited I was, I realized I wanted to have one. Months after, in the news I hear Google was launching a new product. They have their own version.
Initially I would use it for my own to record images and videos to go with my Writing and Experiments. I believe it would help me in my documentation experience as I will not have to use my hands in recording important moments as opposed to just using a Smart Phone or a Camera. It seems unique, futuristic and powerful. It will be a great privilege for people to own such device.
Here are the earliest written thoughts and Rhythm ideas for my song, "Google Glass".
