Dr. Gutshall dropped off the Google Glass invite and I immediately enrolled in the Explorer program. The process of completing the form was slick and simple. In no time at all I was waiting for my Glass to be delivered via FedEx to my room. And within a few short days it arrived!
My first impressions were favorable. Google created a well-designed system including the following components:
- Glass (frames with the eye piece above the right eye)
- charging cord
- ear piece
- shades (to use Glass outside in the sun)
- pouch
It is important to note that the glass piece can be adjusted forward and backward and the nose pieces on the frames adjusted as well. When wearing Glass you should be able to see the entire display comfortably above your right eye.
Glass powered up right out of the box. With the “Welcome” message on the virtual screen in plain sight, I geared up my iPhone with the free MyGlass app and quickly connected the two. The process of connecting to wifi is clever, to say the least. Using the MyGlass app the user chooses to add a network and connects in phone. The app generates a QR code. Then using Glass the user navigates to ‘Add a network’ and “scans” the QR code (in essence, takes a photo of it) to connect the device to the Internet.
