It is not a mere database, though. We aim to provide not only a comprehensive list of available technologies but also a commentary on related topics such as health issues, controversies, socioeconomic implications and more. We also strive to approach each subject with care, research it properly and, if they are available, reference relevant sources, past research, and literature. The overall structure of this knowledge base, can be viewed [[Knowledge Base Structure|here]]. The Human Cognitive Enhancement Wiki is a part of the [http://www.moa.zcu.cz/en/articles-category/17 HCENAT project].

[[File:GoogleGlass_4.jpg|200px|left|alt=Google Glass unit.|Google Glass.]] Google Glass are AR [[Is categorized as::smartglasses]] developed by [[Developed by::Google]] Inc. It is a standalone device that needs to be connected to other devices running Google’s [[Operating system is::Android]] OS, mainly smartphones. It uses a small display hovering in front of the user’s left or right eye. The user can control the device either by a small touch-pad on the side of the device or by using voice commands. The label glasses here could be misleading, by default Glass does not come paired with any lenses, the device itself is a slim glasses-like frame with the HUD unit attached to it. So far only a group of early-adopters selected by Google called ‘Glass Explorers’ could test out the device after paying 1500 USD for the developer version of it. After this testing phase, Google halted the sales of Glass, saying that it will take some time to perfect it. Thanks to a big marketing campaign, Google Glass created a number of controversies, see below for more details. Thanks to the hype Google created, smartglasses and other HMDs, experience a boom that has not been seen before. Even if Google Glass discontinued the device for now, the interest in the technology created a better market for such devices and this lead to many new projects being unveiled. Following the discontinuation in 2015, Google shut down the associated social media accounts for Google Glass in January 2016.
