Google Glass finds another use: Filmmaking

Beauty is in the eye of the Google
Glass wearer.
At least that's what the Internet
search giant hopes a handful of young
filmmakers will discover. Google is
enlisting film students from five
colleges to help it explore how its
wearable computing device can be used
to make movies.
The $1,500 Google Glass headset is
already being used by 10,000 so-called
explorers. The device resembles a pair
of glasses and allows users to take
pictures, shoot video, search the
Internet, compose email and check
schedules.
As part of its experiment, Google will
lend each school three pairs of Google
Glass.
The participating schools are American
Film Institute, California Institute of
the Arts, Rhode Island School of
Design, University of California, Los
Angeles, and University of Southern
California.
