Google Goggles and the Trends of Driving Laws Might be an Almost Negligible Concern. Project Glass: Jumping Out of Airplanes and Scaling Buildings While Wearing the Google Goggles Can be Done and Has Been Tested.

First, a video of Project Glass.  The Google Goggles allows extreme activities while they are able to 'watch' their computer screen at the same time.


11.5 minute Project Glass overview videos, June, 2012:

A 2 minute Project Glass skydiving video:

Texting and driving, as many of you may have heard, is now illegal, at least in some states.  The severity of restrictions on cell phone and PDA has increased, while the ease of use of them due to technological upsurge has increased.  There are some that might complain, and argue, what is the point of developing and buying these technologies if they are only going to be taken away from us?


Severe car accidents is one of the answers.  The effort is to minimize the number of injuries that remotely might have a correlation to texting while driving, or altogether distracted due to the cell phones and PDAs while simultaneously driving.  The increment of time while being distracted that could cause an accident can surprise you, and, the slightest delusion of how much time elapsed while taking your eyes off the road, to entertain what is on your cell phone, might be too much time to have acted prudently.


We are coming up on an era of technological advances where technologies such as the Google Goggles might be a commonality in a few years.  The goggles allows you to see what is in front of you, like clear glasses for those that do not have a glasses prescription, and see what would be on a computer screen, at the same time, accomplished through a tiny mechanism that is placed on a lense, and close to the eye.

The future might hold more, telescopic lenses technology, photo, video, and much more.


While driving, is it the smartest thing to do to, in viewing your computer screen while driving at the same time?    Are there cognitive distortions in the process of making judgement decisions while driving, such about the traffic in front of you, while judging something on the computer screen at the same time; will 2 objects become confused, etc.?


Are we going to wait years after the a gamut of different glasses have made their advent before finally announcing laws, which in refined manner allow the continuance of technology moving forward and upward, while making certain a fringe-realm of incidents do not occur with even any indirect correlations to the glasses.


Along the lines of, 'no eyewear computer viewing while driving', might be an expectation, for those who are less fortunate when it comes to visual and mental capacities, such as the elderly, or new drivers?


What is the difference between the eyewear, and the speedometer LED reading on your windshield; if there is virtually no difference, why should there be a concern?


Much of what would comprise any concern, amongst the keys are, subtle changes the eye undergoes, when placed under certain conditions, and changes in focus duress, before going into hard fact science detail.  


We have probably all arrived, developing the laws now, and the technologies now that will be minimize the possibilities of traffic accidents upon these technologies emerging, could be steps in the right direction.


Developing the technologies now, so that they are effective, and safe, is what Project Glass is doing.  As the video demonstrates, the Google Goggles are being taken through the rigors of all kinds of extreme tests.


To be continued.
