'Wearable Computing Will Be the Norm,' Says Google Glass Team

An anonymous reader writes "In an interview with Wired, Google's Steve Lee and Babak Parviz spoke about how they've come to use Project Glass in their lives, and where they expect the mobile computing industry to go in the near future. 'We've long thought the camera's important, but since we've started using this in public and with our family and friends and in real situations, not just hidden in the Google lab, we've truly seen the power of being hands-free. ... It's my expectation that in three to five years it will actually look unusual and awkward when we view someone holding an object in their hand and looking down at it. Wearable computing will become the norm.'"

  1. Just more Google Garbage - another rehash by axonis · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Are google staff really so smart that the only things they can come up with are rehashed failed hacker ideas of the last 15 years ?, i guess this is a reflection of the staff they hire and the stupifying enviornment they boast about ... as always google is just a bunch of so called smarties trying to pull the wool over the eyes of another generation of newbies that havent seen this type of thing, i guess they hire staff based on how much they can beat their heads against a brick wall ! or how much they can recall cool slashdot stories from years ago ....
