Criticism of Google Glass
There has been quite a lot of skepticism about Google Glass, from
privacy and safety issues, to the aesthetics of its design. The
criticism has even reached the core of the product, that is to say that
it provides no compelling benefit to the user. This concern about the
lack of a compelling benefit is the one that is most frequently
expressed, across a range of industries and demographics. At its root, this criticism is based on a comparison to existing
products, mainly smartphones that can provide potential users with the
same functionalities and mobile applications. As a consequence of this comparison, potential
users do not perceive the existing functionalities of Google Glass as
being innovative and valuable. The interface might be the only thing that is new and innovative to the glasses but I do not think that it solves any problems and adds to the tech of today. What are your thoughts on it?

I feel that our phone service sand mobile apps should be the ares that are being improved,
ReplyDeleteI think that there is really not need to have internet phone services on your glasses at all times. There are much better uses for them.
ReplyDeleteHaving internet phones on your glasses takes away some of the mystery of meeting someone new. I have read several stories of people getting kicked out of places for these glasses.
ReplyDeleteI have yet to see a use for these glasses. Internet phone services on them would be too distracting even if connected with mobile applications.
