Google Glass for so long, I personally experienced the unofficial application is also two, one was written before the hotel housekeeper, and the other is today to say go out to ask. The experience after the trial is that glass this kind of equipment in the near future certainly promising.
Let's go out and ask a brief introduction. This is a life service search based on natural semantic analysis, and you can use it directly to query, for example, "where is the delicious Sichuan food nearby?" "It will be able to understand what you mean and return the results of your query." One of the most difficult points of technology is the semantic analysis of this link, that is, how to make the machine understand the natural language of people. Most of the founding team members who go out to ask are Google, founder Li Zhifei is a Google machine translation team scientist.
It sounds like a very interesting product, however, before this I was not used once, because I am on the phone's voice interaction has always been no good, not as good as keyboard input, experience on the convenience is not obvious. After switching to Google Glass, things changed. Because the Google Glass is now unable to enter the text, you can only rely on the touch pad on the simple click of the operation and voice to interact.
For example, you wear a Google Glass in the car, want to go to Suzhou Street, do not know how to walk, as long as a "OK go out to ask", you can open out to ask the glass application, and then casually say, Suzhou Street how to go ah? Or I want to go to Suzhou Street, application can quickly give a navigation map, tell you how to go where to turn, adjust the angle of the head up, but also in advance to see the position of several inflection points. All of these interactions require only one hand operation, a few more words can complete the navigation, do not bow down on the phone, typing busy, safe and efficient.
In addition to navigation, glass on the go out to ask can do a lot of, ask the place to eat, ask the weather, ask the first class ticket price, even can ask nearby have no handsome girl, mobile phone on some glass basic also have. However, personally think that these are the icing on the cake, the real usefulness or use may be in the car navigation such scenes. Because in this kind of scene, can play glass and go out to ask these two products of the power, hands and eyes are relatively fixed, the natural in the glasses with the advantages of voice interaction is also presented.
The advantage of voice interaction is not just on a particular occasion. In the long run, human interactions with machines evolve in more natural ways, such as communicating directly with machines and talking to people. There is much to be done to achieve this, and there are many areas of speech and semantic recognition that need to be improved, and further breakthroughs in depth learning and artificial intelligence are needed. By the time these technologies are ripe, touch-screen interaction may be as outdated as the old hole-punching note operation.
