The NYPD try Google Glass out on the job

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Google Glass has been gradually finding its way into all facets of daily life, even firefighting, and with each passing week it looks like there are even more applications for it. The latest development is that the NYPD is trying Google Glass to see if they are of any benefit during routine patrolling by officers. According to an official, the NYPD are already trying out “a few” pairs of Google Glass as part of the pilot, and if it’s successful, you can imagine the benefit that it would have for its 34,500 strong force if it were able to utilize things like facial recognition and the like.

That said, we are still in the infancy of the whole wearables movement and there is doubtless going to be ongoing ethics and legislative discussions that crop up now and then, least of all whether police should be allowed to use it. Of particular note is the movement by some American states to ban wearing Google Glass while driving. While probably a sound move in general, there is obviously a lot of contention to do with this as the possibilities are essentially limitless when Google Glass is concerned. That said, if these laws are passed, even policemen won’t be able to wear Google Glass while patrolling in their cars. Maybe save them for the horse-mounted division?

What do you think about police getting Google Glass? Do you think this NYPD trial will result in the widespread use of Google Glass by the police? Let us know you opinion in the comments below.
