We, the developer community, have been hopping around the development ecosystem and creating applications for web (technologies such as Java, .NET, PHP, Ruby, Scala etc) & mobile devices such as smartphones (running iOS, Android), tablet (running iOS, Android) etc.
This year saw the release of Google Glass devices. Google has been doing enough to publicize the google glass and this is expected that there shall be need for Google Glass applications if Google Glass has to be accepted by mass users. That would require developers like us to take a stab at it and create some apps for Google Glass.
If you are very new to google Glass, please read my earlier blogs on Google Glass. This blog is about understanding some basic concepts around google Glass and get started with development.
Before I proceed ahead, I must mention that following are some of the programming languages which has seen support from Google for someone to work with Google Glass Mirror API.
What are some of the key concepts one should know to get started with the development?
Simply speaking, Glassware development has nothing to do with any specifics of Google Glass. One can develop Glassware in PHP, Java, .NET, Python etc like any other web application. Once done, one would be required to integrate with Google Mirror API (RESTful) and then, Glassware will be able to transmit information & receive notifications.
Development of Timeline Cards
Timeline cards is the only means using which Glassware interacts with Glass. One can design & develop timeline cards using following methods:
Additionally, one can also send photos and videos to the timeline card. Also, one would want to paginate the timeline cards for various different reasons. This is also termed as bundling timeline cards. There are two different techniques for bundling timeline cards. They are following:
– Paging
– Threading
I shall be discussing in detail on above approaches in my later blogs.
