Google Glass use in cars poll

A poll commissioned by BMW found that almost half of respondents in Germany would be interested in using Google Glass to help operate their car, writes Brian Byrne.

Still under development, the Google system uses special eyeglasses to 'enhance reality' for the wearer, providing them with eyeline access to internet-based information about the world around them.

The consultants suggest the wearable computer could help with driver distraction problems in dealing with all the potential information inputs for drivers these days.

We're not convinced. It sounds like it would 'enhance' distraction by a quantum.
