Google Glass has updates to the software in its
internet-linked eyewear to allow users to snap pictures by winking. Updates
included letting owners lock eyewear so it can't be used unless a person knows
the right "handshake" of swipes and taps. Google has plans to make
Google glass more fashionable with designer frames. In addition, Google has
plans to provide prescription lenses as part of the device.
Google Glass is an entirely new kind of wearable mobile
device conceived to be a constant companion of sorts which can take care of all
your mobile digital needs.
At present it is made available to only a handful of lucky
developers who are analysing it. Currently only 2000 Google Glasses are
available in the world, which were sold at $1500 on an invitation basis. It is
expected to be released for mass market in the beginning of 2014 with reduced
price corresponding to the demand. You can Set a Price Alert Above

4430 dual core processor and 1GB RAM.
The Glass can be synchronised with the phone and can carry
out all the functions done by your mobile phone. The MyGlass companion app
requires Android 4.0.3 (Ice Cream Sandwich) or higher.
In addition it is an entertainment hub with a screen of high
resolution display equivalent to a 25 inches high definition screen at a
distance of 8 meters.
The Google Glass comes with adjustable notepads and frame to
fit all faces, with two extra nose pads. There is possibility that Google will
have tie-ups with sunglass manufacturers like RayBan.
