But there is a tiny rectangular glass at the top right-hand corner. Through that glass, she has been recording video while biking. She also has been able to talk to her sister in Thailand, and she plans to use the device to teach a public speaking class.
But not everyone is excited about Google Glass. Some are concerned about possible risks to privacy. John Simpson is the director of the privacy project at Consumer Watchdog.
Google says that it has already addressed that concern. Mr. Dale explained that in order to start the camera or record a video, the owner must say something out loud.
But filmmaker Chris Barrett showed just how easy it is to record people without them knowing it. His glass captured a man getting arrested after a fight. He shared the video on YouTube.
Also some are concerned about the use of facial recognition technology on Google Glass. But Google says it will not approve the use of such applications. The Internet company says it is still testing its new device. It hopes to make Google Glass available to the public by early next year.（道金斯）教授的谷歌眼镜看上去就像是没有实际镜片的亮橙色眼镜（框），而实际上在眼镜右上角有个长方形的微型镜片。通过这个镜片，她可以边骑车边录像，还能与远在泰国的妹妹通话。她计划用该设备来教授一堂公共演讲课。
但并非所有人都为谷歌眼镜感到兴奋不已，有些人担心这可能存在隐私风险。约翰·辛普森是消费者保护组织隐私项目的负责人。
谷歌称已经解决了这方面的担忧。戴尔先生说，眼镜的所有者必须大声说出命令才能开启照相或录像功能。
但电影制作人克里斯·巴雷特展示了该眼镜可以很轻易地在别人不知情的情况下进行录像。他的眼镜捕捉到了一名男子在打架后被捕的情形，他在YouTube上分享了这段视频。
同时也有人对谷歌眼镜使用面部识别技术颇感担忧，但谷歌称其不会批准使用该类应用。作为旗下新贵的谷歌眼镜，互联巨头称其尚处测试阶段，希望明年年初能向公众推出。
