Connecting your home with Google Glass


The discovery of a patent application has revealed another potential use for Google Glass - managing a connected home.

The application, filed on Sept 21, 2011, published on March 21 and first discovered by Engadget, details how the headset could be used to identify an appliance or gadget in the home and when it does, overlay a control interface or a list of relevant information in the headset wearer's screen. This would give the wearer the sense that the information or control buttons are floating in mid-air in front of that person's eyes.
