Towards uniformity for smart glasses devices: An assessment of function as the driver for standardisation
Stuart Elder, Alex Vakaloudis · 2015
Smart glasses come as an autonomous, wearable device that will diminish the gap between intention and action. Being a new technology, there are a plethora of diverse devices under development. We investigate them in order to discover elements of uniform characteristics under a two-fold reasoning. First examine the technical attributes that will facilitate professional usage into specific application domains. Second in a societal context detect the issues that will drive their adoption for consumer purposes. Our conclusion is that although there is a nucleus of common features being formed, further evidence of usability in the professional domains and overcoming societal issues is needed prior to their adoption for consumer applications.
