Re: Chess for Glass
Yes, the Glass Explorer Program is open. However, Glass is currently authorized for use in the United States and United Kingdom. Stay tuned for updates on the Glass information pages.mclane wrote:Can Glass be bought ??

Re: Chess for Glass
Luckily, the feedback on the first release of Chess for Glass has overall been positive. Criticism I have seen, and also agree with, focus on (1) mistakes made by voice recognition with similarly sounding files (since b, c, d, e, and g all sound similar) and (2) placing the voice menu over the chess board.
The next release addresses the first issue with the ability to enable a phonetic alphabet for voice input. In this mode, voice input uses the phonetic alphabet for files (alpha, bravo, charlie, etc) without further from or to designation. Example: "ok glass, pawn, echo two, echo four" plays the pawn from e2 to e4. Although uncommon in chess notation, this form of voice input is less prone to sound ambiguities.
