Having spent three years miniaturising its invention and trialling it among the developer and 'Explorer' community Google is ready to launch Glass on the public, hoping to create positive feedback and stimulate demand. The voice and touch activated miniature computer, worn on a spectacles frame with a miniature optical display, can shoot film and video, and give handsfree access to the internet. Glass is mounted on a pair of compatible spectacles and the small screen sits above the wearer's right eye.
