DIVINE: Building a Wearable Device for Intelligent Control of Environment Using Google Glass

Google Glass has introduced a new way of user interaction with their environment. Users wearing Glass interact through a head-mounted display, a touchpad and spoken commands to allow a full immersion in their environment (such as taking pictures, navigating the web, etc.), linked to background software. Coupled with strong public and commercial interests in smart homes and intelligent environments, in this work, for the first time, we have prototyped a wearable system of using Glass for intelligent control of environment, which could potentially lead to the use of wearable technology in different applications such as home automation, smart cities or smart spaces.
