Google Glass app for virtual communication

The app called InSight uses ‘spatiograms’ gleaned from smartphone use to develop a ‘fashion fingerprint’ of the device’s owner based on his clothing and location. This information can then be shared with other users, allowing those wearing Google Glass technology to identify, and even communicate virtually with, others.
