The price isn\u0027t likely to give them pause, though, as developers are hungry to play around with the augmented-reality devices and see for themselves what they can do. Google is equally hungry for the innovations the devs are likely to dream up... Another term for what the glasses offer is \u0022mixed reality,\u0022 according to \u003Cstrong\u003EBlair MacIntyre, associate professor of interactive computing\u003C\/strong\u003E at\u0026nbsp;Georgia Tech. He prefers this term, instead of \u0022augmented reality,\u0022 to refer to the overlay of 2D and 3D information on a screen -- or in the case of Google Glasses, off to the side of the field of vision. \u0022I call it mixed reality,\u0022 MacIntyre told TechNewsWorld. \u0022There\u0027s a whole bunch of ways to mix the virtual world with the world around you.\u0022\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":"","uid":"27659","created_gmt":"2012-06-29 16:33:59","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:12:26","author":"Christopher Ernst","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2012-06-28T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2012-06-28T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.macnewsworld.com\/story\/75502.html","title":"Source: TechNewsWorld"}],"groups":[{"id":"1299","name":"GVU Center"}],"categories":[{"id":"143","name":"Digital Media and Entertainment"}],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
