"  Throughout the year we&amp;#039;ve heard hints and whispers about Google&amp;#039;s wild new augmented reality project\u2014Web-connected goggles that could, for instance, overlay the directions to your destination onto your field of view. Now those future glasses are going out into the world.  At I/O, the gathering of developers Google is currently hosting near its home base in California, co-founder Sergey Brin told attendees today that the company would sell Google Glass to developers for $1500 a pop. (Only American developers can buy them for now, though.) They&amp;#039;ll ship early next year. Google used extreme sports to demo the technology, showing that Google Glass could become a kind of GoPro that shows exactly what you see. Developers in the room got to see live feeds from Glass-wearing parachutists who jumped from a blimp. In his talk afterward, Brin emphasized that Google wanted the creative minds in the room to further realize the device&amp;#039;s potential. As for the tech inside the specs: We know that Google Glass will have touch panel and a separate button that would allow the wearer to record video and take photos. Engadget has gathered the rumors about the rest, including that the eventual production model could include 3G/4G and could be controlled by your smartphone, though Google clearly has the physical inputs on the glasses in mind to be the main inputs.
