GOOGLE - TO THE EXTREME!!!!

BATMAN MODE

 

[ThatObviousUser]

WTF at this biking stuff!

WTF at climbing down a building!

This is Batman-level stuff!

 

[LyleLanley]

Shit I missed the jump ... have they shown any HUD overlays?

Nope. It is EXTREME however.

 

[Enco]

Google glasses?

Just joined in again.

 

[Banana Kid]

So Glass is a great eye-mounted camera, but doesn't look like it's the magical HUD we all wanted.

 

[Dunlop]

We needed Google at E3 this year

 

[Shining Sunshine]

SO AWESOME!

 

[Leonsito]

Just imagine an NBA game, or a F1 race where everyone of the players/drivers have this glasses.

 

[massoluk]

This product will appeal to billionaire spelunking, BASE-jumping crowd.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Neveldine/Taylor should be first in line for this tech.

 

[clav]

Amazing.

 

[VanWinkle]

That was seriously incredible, haha

 

[Raistlin]

I don't get it

Nope. It is EXTREME however.

How is this different than a helmet cam, etc?

 

[ThatObviousUser]

This is the best tech keynote of all time.

 

[zbeeb]

im sure google simply isnt ready to show the hud

 

[MThanded]

why though?

 

[jokkir]

What the hell just happened LOL

 

[Pctx]

So Facebook wanted to put the social experience of stuff online... Google just trademarked putting your entire GD life online!

 

[Paznos]

So Awesome.

 

[reKon]

this was 100x better than E3

 

[T.M. MacReady]

I don't get it





How is this different than a helmet cam, etc?

live stream instead of recording video?

 

[JaggedSac]

lol, I think the hype train left the station without me.

 

[kehs]

I don't get it

Live stream man.

 

[Divvy]

That was incredible. What the hell man.

But so far it's just an eye mounted streaming camera. I want them to show off what else it can do. And the HUD.

 

[Raistlin]

This is the best tech keynote of all time.

How?


I don't understand what was just shown that couldn't be done with a helmet cam, etc?

Live stream man.

Pretty sure that's been done before using a variety of techs

 

[victreeb3l]

are the glasses just camera? not sure whats cool about that

 

[Emily Chu]

this was 100x better than E3

Sadly I agree.... LOL

 

[mollipen]

So, I guess, I don't get the excitement. It's a webcam attached to a pair of glasses. Is this something hugely different than what we can already do?

(I'm asking seriously, because I'm confused as to why people are finding this impressive.)

 

[Jeff-DSA]

I want Google Frickin' Laser Beams next.

 

[Marty Chinn]

I don't get it





How is this different than a helmet cam, etc?

I think the point is it's just feeding directly into Google Plus which a helmet cam wouldn't do by default.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

im sure google simply isnt ready to show the hud

Exactly. Whatever they show will be lambasted since it's still at least a year off. That concept video should be a good indication.

 

[kehs]

THey better share this "event" publicly for all to see videos/pictures.

 

[erpg]

What's the big deal here?

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Dat GoPro shoutout.

 

[def sim]

Show the AR stuff.

 

[3phemeral]

How?

It's the immediate connectivity to Google +.

 

[massoluk]

THIS IS HOW YOU DO A PRESS CONFERENCE.

All that's missing are giant robot and light saber.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

How?

Has a head-mounted camera ever livestreamed a fooking jump out of a plane, during the conference?

Also don't forget it's an entire fricking computer, not just a camera. It was livestreaming to Google+ the whole time.

 

[Paznos]

Rofl the wrong one? it's turquoise!

 

[Sean]

Pretty cool demo but didn't really show off anything amazing. Seems to be just an eye-mounted camera at this point.

I wanna see a HUD and augmented reality/techno stuff.

 

[Raistlin]

I think the point is it's just feeding directly into Google Plus which a helmet cam wouldn't do by default.

But that's really just showing off a feature of Google Plus (and it exists on a number of services) ... nothing that makes the glasses special beyond a cool form-factor

 

[JordanKZ]

Chrome and Youtube app updates just went out for ICS devices.

 

[JonnyBrad]

Sony Nintendo and MS take note.

 

[zbeeb]

the only way this could be better?

IF THE POWERPOINT WAS PARTY MODE IN GOOGLE+ AND THE PICTURES THEY ARE TAKING WITH GLASS WERE UPLOADING AUTOMATICALLY

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Oh hey Raistlin isn't excited about something awesome Google showed. I'M SO SHOCKED

 

[jobber]

i need this device for my fps games

 

[Blackhead]

Google glass + Google Now is going to be so amazing. You can just see the pieces coming together slowly...

 

[Achtius]

Sony Nintendo and MS take note.

People playing gravity rush while sky diving.

 

[MThanded]

Google bringing cancer straight to your brain.

 

[def sim]

Sony Nintendo and MS take note.

Publicity stunts for everyone!
