Project Overview
During the early days of Google Glass, I developed several innovative applications that enhanced the Glass experience and addressed key user needs. These apps gained significant traction in the Glass community and were featured in various tech publications.
Key Applications
Winky
A revolutionary app that enabled users to take photos by simply winking. This hands-free approach made capturing moments more natural and intuitive. The app gained significant popularity with over 200 stars on GitHub and was featured in multiple tech publications.
Launchy
An essential app launcher for Google Glass that solved a critical limitation of the platform. Launchy provided users with a way to launch native apps, which wasn't possible through the default Glass interface. The app was widely adopted by Glass developers and users.
Tilty
A unique app that utilized Glass's built-in sensors to create new interaction methods. Tilty demonstrated the potential for innovative input methods on wearable devices.
Bulletproof
A utility app that enhanced the security and reliability of Glass applications, ensuring they could run smoothly in various conditions.
Impact
These applications collectively received over 400 stars on GitHub and were downloaded thousands of times by Glass users. They were featured in various tech publications and helped shape the early Glass developer ecosystem. The apps demonstrated the potential of wearable computing and pushed the boundaries of what was possible with the Glass platform.
