From having tried Glass, I can affirm that you do indeed look away.

If any of you are wearing glasses, try looking at the top corner of your frame; that's the same motion needed to engage with Glass.

You'd effectively completely break eye contact with the person you're talking to and motion as if you're looking at something completely different. It's the equivalent of getting distracted by a cool car while your friend talks to you and you have to say "sorry, I saw a cool car, go on".




This interesting. Owning Glass, I can assure you that of is possible to maintain eye contact while viewing content. Depending on the amount of cognition needed to process the content, this perceived conversation might be broken.


I am keen to try reading while driving on an autobahn, is it save? Can I develop while looking out of the window? That would be great, this staring on a screen always felt somewhat autistic.
