Update on Google Glasses.

Babak Parviz, head of Project Glass at Google has given an interview updating some of the progress since they were first shown off Mid-2012.

Among other information, he describes how the glasses are currently controlled:

Right now, we have a touch pad on the device that allows people to change things on the device if they wish to do so. We have also experimented a lot with using voice commands. We have full audio in and audio out, which is a nice, natural way of interacting with something that you’d wear and always have with you. We have also experimented with some head gestures.

Check out the full interview here.

Royal College of Art student Gabriele Meldaikyte has designed a set of interactive exhibits for a museum of iPhone gestures. “I believe that in ten years or so these gestures will completely change, therefore my aim is to perpetuate them so they become accessible for future generations,” she explains.
