How we would fix Google Glass

A step-by-step on how to fix an ocular device.

The Google Glass. (The Verge)

Even though Google is selling the glass with significant updates, like those that include a frame, the price is still far too high. If we want Google Glass to be seen as a truly revolutionary product, we need to make substantial changes that will allow Google to make a great product. My list of concerns are as follows:

1. Exclusion: Google Glass costs just under $1,000. If we want Google Glass to be successful, we must make it so that it can cost a more reasonable price. we must consider the manufacturing costs as well as the material and shipping costs. When Google Glass was being made, the original asking price was under $1,400. But because very few people could own one, it was a failure from the start. I say we should price it anywhere from around $200 to $500. Considering everything in the cost of the glass, and considering the fact that there needs to be a spinning profit cycle, it would be sensible to sell it at this price range.
2. Poor user interface: Using Google Glass OS is a nightmare. It can take as much as one whole hour to get accustomed to the interface. We should base our new Google Glass OS on the likes of the Apple watch. The watch has a very easy-to-understand UI, and we should base something similar on that. Maybe if we had a gyration (Let’s say, we shook our head to access the system), it would be easier to use.
3. Ergonomics: If you move your head around using Google Glass, you would know that it falls off and is very susceptible to warping. also, Google Glass is very asymmetrical in its design, with the battery being on one side of the glass and absolutely nothing on the other. Plus there is only one projector on one side of the glass, and this interferes with the right eye. Maybe if we had two projectors projecting a soft image on either side of the glass, as well as two battery packs, it may work. Or maybe, it isn’t bifocal. Maybe we can have it as a strap-on device that you strap onto a pair of glasses. Like a sun visor, it can be something used only when you need it. Also, for those of East Asian descent, who tend to have a smaller nose bridge, the glass can be uncomfortable to wear, as the nose pads rest at one, not many angles.
4. Improvements of controller function: We get rid of that stupid little pad on the side of the head. Instead, we replace it with remote control, on the tip of the thumb. If we have a controller the size of our thumb, or maybe a system that reads the people’s eyes, that will function as a remote control. If you look suddenly left, right, up, or down, the system will interpret it as a left-right-up-down mechanism.
5. Improvement of battery life: We put in not one, but two batteries. these batteries will not be Lithium-Ion but will be made exclusively with Graphene. Graphene is known to be an energy-dense material, so we can use a smaller battery to power 9 hours of Google Glass. Graphene can also absorb a large amount of energy in a short amount of time. Also, Graphene is light and opens up the possibility of using more material to create Graphene processing chips.

Google Glass was supposed to be an enigma, one that was supposed to shock the world. But when it came out in 2013–2014, it failed to win the hearts of potential millions. Changes like making an inclusive price point, improved UI system, a more comfortable design, better positioning of controllers, and better battery life make the Glass live up to its former hype.
