Advantages Project glasses will act as a hands-free computer, so you won’t need to break your country law while driving. We can text and see the map while we are on our way. Users already wearing glasses also be able to wear this. It performs almost all functions of a smartphone and it also runs on Android platform. Useful technology for disabbled/handicapped people. Fast access of maps, documents, videos, chats and much more. A new trend for fashion lovers together being an innovative technology. A spectacle based computer to reside directly on your eyes rather than in your pouch or pocket. eITnotes.com
Disadvantages Can be easily broken or damaged. Privacy of people may breach with new glasses. These glasses show the retrieved data in front of users eyes so it will be a tough experience for them since they will focus on that data and will eventually miss the surroundings that may lead to accidents while driving. eITnotes.com
Future Scope The key findings of the research were: The quality of pictures and video are usable for healthcare education, reference, and remote consultation. Tele-consultation is possible—depending on the available bandwidth—during operative procedures. A stabillizer should be added to the video function to prevent choppy transmission when a surgeon looks to screens or colleagues. Battery life can be easily extended with the use of an external battery. A protocol or checklist displayed on the screen of Glass can be helpful during procedures. eITnotes.com
