My experience with Google Glass - are the use cases about Health?

We'll I finally got to test out Google Glass.

In a way it is a hero product - as it is very geeky - and it goes for it - without worrying about silly things like privacy implications.

The experience - it reminded me of one of those old fashioned slide projectors - but the screen being in the top right hand corned of your eye. Actually for such a tiny screen - it is very clear - and the writing (a tasteful font - similar to that IOS update) easy to read.

I took a photo - it was all really easy.

People are seeing that some of the best use cases - could involve Doctor's, nurses, GP's etc... For example:
  • Bringing up patient records;
  • Getting procedural advice;
  • Being able to instantly upload image data - a wound etc... to a specialist etc....
Police:
  • Effectively a more military grade HUD - says maps - alerts in a riot situation.
However for both examples - Glass has a relatively short battery life (3 hours etc...) so perhaps work needs to be done.

The guy who owned the Glass - said he would wear it out  - and yes - people (like me) would stop him all the time!
