Learn to Build Apps for Google Glass within just 3 hours
Description
You don't need Google Glass for this course. You can build and publish Google Glass apps without Google Glass. For testing you can use Google Glass Emulator
The Glass Development Kit (GDK) is an add-on to the Android SDK that lets you build Glassware that runs directly on Glass.
When developing Glassware, the best practice is to develop with the Glass Development Kit. This allows you to access low-level hardware features and create robust experiences in a familiar Android environment.
The Glass Development Kit
The Glass Development Kit (GDK) is an add-on to the Android SDK that lets you build Glassware that runs directly on Glass. Use the GDK to take advantage of the following features:
- Real-time User Interaction
- Offline Functionality
- Access to Hardware
Google designed the Glass platform to make the existing Android SDK just work on Glass. This lets you code in a familiar environment, but for a uniquely novel device.
The Mirror API
This RESTful API lets you build Glassware by letting you use the language of your choice and providing web-based APIs. You may want to use the Mirror API if you need:
- Platform independence
-
Common infrastructure
-
Built-in functionality
