A Google Glass-based platform has been shown to detect human immunodeficiency
virus (HIV) and prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Since its limited availability
to public, Google Glass has been used for variety of
applications.
The GoogleGlass is famous for a voice-controllable hands-free computing system that can perform imaging
and video-recording tasks. In addition, various wireless technologies including
Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are available in it. It can access internet and
determine location information via global positioning systems (GPS) and/or
triangulation through cellular service provider towers.
