The Baidu Eye: China's Version Of Google Glass Is In Development

Google's (NASDAQ:GOOG) Project Glass, which can be seen above, is the company's newest effort to develop an augmented reality experience by simply putting on a pair of glasses. Now, its Chinese competitor, the search engine giant Baidu, is creating its own version of the tech accessory that has wowed the Internet. According to the China Daily, a prototype of Baidu's version of the $1,500 Google Glass is known internally among developers as the "Baidu Eye." It will also be a wearable LCD display device that will supposedly function like the Google model. It will include speech recognition features, in Mandarin of course, and other specs similar to Google Glass like image recognition and motion sensing.
