<![CDATA[Real-time, real-world captioning comes to Google Glass]]>
Google Glass is fitted with a microphone and installed with speech-recognition software, which allows the wearer to talk to the device to give it instructions. This software has been refined to a point where it is now reasonable to expect very few errors -- but what Google Glass is not so good at is picking up sounds from farther away.The wearable head-up display's potential for the hearing impaired, though, did not go unnoticed by a team of researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology. They found a way to circumvent the limitation's of Glass' microphone to create an app that captions conversations in real-time.
