Google Glasses Depth evaluation

In the flow of the metropolis, whether in the subway, the bus or the road, you will see people are constantly staring at their hands of the phone. Playing games, reading novels, browsing the web, people now seem to be immersed in a small palm, a minute also inseparable from the hands of the smartphone. Even the most basic sense of security is not there if someone doesn't bring the phone with him.

Smartphones are really amazing things, and while all machines look just as clumsy in their use, people's lives can't be left behind. But now smartphones are getting bigger and more inconvenient to use, and sometimes you even have to stop every 30 minutes to take out your smartphone and see if Facebook friends leave a message for you. In this era of rapid change in information, if technology can be put on people's body, it will make people's lives more convenient. Now, the use of Google glasses of the head-wearing electronic equipment, seems to have naturally appeared in people's lives. This is a device that can change the industry by combining headphones, display screens, cameras, and wireless data connection devices. Although sometimes the user's privacy issues, but it seems that the current outside of the outlook for Google glasses is still very optimistic.

Hardware configuration

The first thing we need to say is that the "one" Google glasses that we're talking about here includes the eyeglasses and the headphones, and not just Google glasses.

The design of Google's glasses is very simple and clean, beautiful and elegant, and not as clumsy as other head-worn outfits. The most eye-catching part is to use a combination of titanium metal and plastic glasses frame, the middle thin ends thick, the whole glasses look very coordinated.

Google glasses of the mirror nose also uses titanium material, and with a very comfortable silicone pad, added to the mirror nasal design allows the glasses firmly fixed in the user's face, and will not slide down. But in the use of the process, we found that time long Google glasses will still slowly decline, not completely fixed in the face.

A continuous circle of titanium bars makes the entire spectacle look more beautiful and practical, while the camera part uses a white plastic material, but from the actual effect, Google glasses really confidential than in the picture looks more beautiful coordination.

All of Google's glasses are designed with two plastic shells, one containing the battery and bone conduction speakers, and the other inside the processor, camera and display components. On the side of the glasses also cleverly will touch board concealed design on the top, and the trackpad can be a good balance on the other end of the battery to bring the weight, can make Google glasses balanced and stable for consumers to use.

In the actual wearing process, Google glasses will actually have some imbalance, the right because the weight is heavier than the left side, so or slightly to sink some. This sometimes affects the use of Google glasses in positioning is to view the information displayed on the lenses. Overall, however, Google glasses compared with ordinary glasses in the wearing of comfort is not much different, even more than some ordinary frame glasses still comfortable. But for those who are not always wearing glasses, it may take a while to wear Google glasses.

Google glasses are suitable for most people to wear and can be fine-tuned according to the face of different wearer. We selected 20 people for trial wear, most of them can see the information displayed above the lens, only a very few people with poor eyesight can not see. Looks like the future Google glasses also need a adjustable focal length function.

However, if the wearer wants to take off the Google glasses, it may cost a few twists. Although the integrally shaped titanium metal frame looks very good, it also means that it is not as soft as ordinary plastic. If users want to want to Google glasses off, you need two hands at the same time, or only one hand can not be easily removed Google glasses.

After dismantling Google glasses, we can find that it uses a slightly outdated TI OMAP 4430 chip, with 1GB running memory and 16GB storage space, and only 12GB provides the user with free control. There are two ways to transfer data to Google glasses, either by connecting to the wireless network directly via the Google + account, or by direct transmission via the microUSB port. In addition to the battery's detailed capacity, although we do not know, but from the size of the battery to see the endurance of the ability is not optimistic.

Wireless and connectivity Performance

When the outside world first learned that Google glasses exist, everyone is guessing that it will depend entirely on smartphones, especially Android. It turns out that's not the case. Google glasses can easily access data via WiFi or Bluetooth to connect to the Internet or other devices.

Google Glasses is a completely independent equipment, as long as the guarantee to connect WiFi, even if no smart phone companion, Google Glasses can still complete the task normally. However, this also brings on the other hand flaw, that is because the Google glasses are too independent of the user if you want to export the data in Google Glasses, then only through WiFi cloud storage or Bluetooth connected to the computer, which for some users may cause inconvenience.
