This means things are as serious as possible and that the device, reportedly worn by Google executives, like Sergey Brin and Vic Gundotra, could be a reality soon. The patents posted can be viewed here, here and here and they show different design versions. This just might be a good idea since whatever Google does, everyone wants to do, for some reason (insert smiley face here). Interestingly, Oakley has been developing something similar for a few years now – but I’m not sure it will be able to compete with Google in terms of marketing, provided both products are available at the same time. I can’t wait to test them out, especially since it’s obvious that a lot of progress is being made on them – Googler Sebastian Thrun, one of the project leaders, has been posting pictures taken with the glasses’ camera feature on the Project Glass Google+ page, which Google seems to be experimenting with these days.
