Project Glass: One Day … inspired

Will Powell — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 00:16:40 +0000

I really like the project glass by Google. To that extent I have created a version using a pair of Vuzix Glasses, Microsoft HD Webcams, mic headset and dragon naturally speaking. Using these combined pieces of hardware I was able to get the head mounted display and voice recognition. I built the application using Adobe Air. The application sports full voice recognition and has the same interface that Google project glass has. The Vuzix glasses are driven by stereoscopic feeds, which are fed by the HD cameras.

Blackberry playbook…. so close

Will Powell — Wed, 13 Apr 2011 19:16:19 +0000

Seeing as my background is in as3 and Adobe Flex I have been very excited about the new blackberry playbook coming out that has Adobe Air right at the heart of the platform. I am a developer on the device and have a few applications already live on the store. I will post up some items about each app soon, but it is still a way away from having the devices in the UK.

Thank everyone for downloading my apps. I realize that it has been a learning curve and my apps have steadily been getting better with my latest apps having 4 and 5 star review. Keep downloading and I will try and get a few more out soon.
