Google Glass Explorers Brings VIP Flavor To The AR Tech

This afternoon no less than Google's Sergey Brin send out an update on Project Glass in the form of a special invite-only program in which Google+ will be a place for a limited set of future users of the hardware will be able to get special updates. The first of these updates includes Brin speaking about how he used Project Glass and a brand new app with the hardware to take photos of a trip he was on ever 10 seconds automatically. The one shot he shared was a fabulous in-car photo that might never have existed had he not been using the AR glasses in real life.

Glass is a special bit of technology made by Google that take the form of a pair of glasses with basically some extra-thick rims for all the fabulous technology you could want. Using a brand new user interface shown on a tiny piece of glass that sits up above your right eye, you're able to control your device with a series of gestures and taps. The side of the device is touch-sensitive, while your head will do the rest.

Glass Explorers will be getting exclusive looks at updates through the future similar to the piece you're seeing above and below here – so no worries, folks, you've got SlashGear on your side! That said, at the moment it appears that developers, press, and other attendees of Google I/O 2012 have received the invite thus far, but we're seeing more and more pop up in our tip bin by the minute.
