Google Glass was the first mass marketed augmented reality head mounted display. Google launched a developer beta test in 2014 in the United States only, meaning that Canadians couldn’t order one. To get around this limitation, some developers, including the donor, had them shipped to post office boxes or addresses in the United States and then forwarded to addresses in Canada. One of the goals of the beta testing was to have developers create functional and practical applications that made use of the features of the Google Glass so when the commercial version launched there would be a selection of programs that the average consumer could download “out of the box.” This also served a secondary marketing purpose where Google would be able to “talk” about all of the wonderful things that consumers could accomplish with Google Glass and what was currently being done to make those dreams into realities. Purchased by Sean Pintaric, an IT Security consultant in Calgary, and a friend with the hopes of developing an App for text/object recognition for cyclists to use or an App for virtual geocaching. Unfortunately for the Beta testers, Google only released a partial API (Application Program Interface) four months before the device was purchased, only releasing the full API eight months after launch. Six months later the beta test had ended and Google had cancelled the Google Glass project. - Fonction

Like with any new technology that forces the user to redefine the public and the private spaces, Google Glass was not without controversy. One of the biggest concerns was over privacy, etiquette, and ethics of using the headset to record other people in public. Privacy advocates were concerned that people wearing such eyewear may be able to identify strangers in public using already existing facial recognition like found in the “find my face” feature in Google+. Google Glass also ignited discussions about the cyborg and the persistent role of machines in the quotidian. On the other hand, some communities embraced the possibilities of the technology in creating opportunities for real time distance education and medical applications. - Notes sur la région
