Summary

PALO ALTO, Calif.—Even while sitting in a café on University Avenue, one of Silicon Valley’s best-known commercial districts, it’s hard not to get noticed wearing Google Glass. At least three people came by and gawked at the newfangled device, and Balaban even offered to let one woman try it on for herself—she turned out to be the wife of famed computer science professor Tony Ralston. Its a project he hopes will eventually become the “largest wearable computing software company in the world.” In Balabans eyes, Lambdas recent foray into facial recognition only represents the beginning. Its a way to give people access to [artificial intelligence] or computer vision that would usually be reserved for a large company or a team of domain experts. Among those queries was this burning question: "When using Google Glass, is it true that this product would be able to use Facial Recognition Technology to unveil personal information?"
