State of the art Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA.

An all-new compact premium-class SUV is arriving soon: the Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA.
Officially unveiled at the 2013 Shanghai motor show in April, this striking concept model marks a whole new approach for Mercedes-Benz in the compact SUV segment.
“This is a sporty and more coupé-like evolution of this category of vehicle”, explained Dr Joachim Schmidt, Head of Sales and Marketing, Mercedes-Benz Cars.
Combining dramatic styling with tough off-road looks, the Concept GLA shares its design credentials with the recently launched A-Class. Distinctive features include the broad bonnet with powerdomes, the muscular rear and a sporty radiator grille with centrally positioned star.

Sinewy lines and sculpted surfaces create a dynamic silhouette, while the sophisticated interior features dark galvanised aluminium trim, LED air vents and saddle leather upholstery with hand-stitched seams.
Additional highlights include a clear panoramic roof fitted with detachable cameras, and ‘laser-light’ headlamps that can also function as projectors, transmitting pictures or films onto a surface through COMAND Online.
The Concept GLA is equipped with a four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine rated at 211 hp, along with a 7G-DCT dual clutch automatic transmission and 4MATIC all-wheel drive. Its athletic proportions (length/width/height: 4383/1978/1579 mm) are almost identical to those of the production car.

Google glass in view

Google Glass is a research and development project by Google. Google Glass displays information in a smartphone like format hands free, can interact with the Internet via natural language voice commands, and uses Google's Android operating system. While the frames do not currently have lenses fitted to them, Google is considering partnering with sunglass retailers such as Ray-Ban or Warby Parker, and may also open retail stores to allow customers to try on the device.

  
The wait is finally over to see what it will really be like to use Google Glass. Google has released a video showcasing the headsets initial features, user interface, and the overall experience of using Google Glass in everyday life.
As we might already knew, voice recognition will be the primary method for interacting with the headset, in conjunction with a small gesture-based touch pad and button on the side of the device, but now we are starting to see how these input methods will actually work in practice.
By speaking the phrase “Ok Google”, followed by one of the pre-set commands, you’ll be able to perform a Google search, take a picture, record a video, send a message, or get directions to a location. This appears to be the full list of supported features for Glass thus far but Google has mentioned in the past that they are experimenting with many different ideas. This is just the initially supported feature set.
Back in January Babak Parviz, head of the Google Glass project, described the features as “still in flux” and mentioned that they are “experimenting with a lot of things. The feature set for the device is not set yet”. Now, just a few weeks later, we have a much clearer idea of what to expect from the first iteration of Google Glass, despite not knowing when we’ll finally be able to get our hands on a pair of our own.
For a lucky few however, the wait will not be very long at all. Today Google announced a ‘Glass Explorer’ initiative aimed at creative individuals based in the US. It will give the general public a chance to get early access to Google Glass and offer feedback for how to better develop the hardware, its features and the overall experience.
Being a Glass Explorer will not be cheap though. You’ll need to purchase your own headset for $1,500 dollars plus tax and that’s only if Google accepts your application to take part. So, for the time being, we’ll just have to sit back and enjoy the shiny press shots and inspirational videos, while Google drums up excitement and developer interest for the wireless headset of our dreams.
Now that we’ve seen the Google Glass experience in more detail, could you see yourself wearing a wireless device like this in everyday life? Or would you prefer to just stick with a smartphone?
