Google Glass is undoubtedly an extremely interesting and attractive novelty, which, however, is not yet available to ordinary users. Only a few lucky ones have already managed to test this achievement of modern technical progress. As they say, if the mountain does not go to Magomed, then Magomed goes to the mountain - an Australian hacker under the nickname Ash_Williams has developed his own version of smart glasses.
Ash_Wiiliams named his glasses Flass - from the English words "fake" (fake) and "glass" (glasses). And despite the fact that the glasses are far from the declared functionality of real Google Glass, they are nevertheless an extremely interesting gadget.
As you can see from the photos, the Flass is not a stylish goggle due to its bulky design, which is based on regular glasses with a small display attached. This whole structure connects to an Android device (for example, a Galaxy S), which has a TV-out. Thus, part of the information from the smartphone is displayed on the small screen of the glasses. It is hardly possible to fully understand how it works from the photographs, but the basic idea can still be drawn.
It's worth noting that Flass doesn't look so bad, especially considering the fact that this is only the fourth version of them. It will be extremely interesting to see the final version of this development.
