Google Glass is Google's wearable computer that a person wears like a regular pair of prescription glasses. Google Glass is best described as an evolution of the smartphone — a way to freely access data without needing to look at a handheld device. A "heads-up display" suspended slightly above your eye places data right in your field of vision, without completely obstructing your view.

In 2013, the device became available for beta testing to lucky applicants who were selected based on their proposal for how to use the device and were willing to purchase it for $1,500. Google Glass is slated for commercial release in 2014, and continues to undergo hardware and interface changes.

The technology was designed to be as convenient as possible, allowing you to see the projected screen without it blocking your vision. It was intended to give you all of the benefits of a smartphone, without the need to hold the device up where you can see it.
