The makers of Atheer One glasses want to bring Android-powered, gesture-based computing to the masses.

Atheer One glasses could put Android-powered, gesture-based computing on your face.

Helped along by a sci-fi-style concept video, a new Google Glass competitor called the Atheer One shot halfway to its $100,000 crowd-funding goal in just a day.

“In a few years, the digital world with all its rich information will be completely merged with the real one,” says Atheer Labs in its Indiegogo campaign for the Atheer One, which has already raised more than $54,000. “Let’s get the future started today!”

What does that future look like, according to Atheer? Take a look at the video below and see for yourself.

Who says Google Glass is only good for making you look like a certified dork? Four animators recently got creative with the head-mounted gadget, using Google’s wearable tech to capture imagery for a clever stop-motion video called Catch.

“We shot this entirely on Google Glass over 4 days, with over 1,000 photos and drawings,” write the filmmakers on their YouTube page for Catch. “Made by a group of animator and filmmaker friends here in New York, jamming on the weekends.”

The four filmmakers are Tu Uthaisri, Freddy Arenas, Namroc Doan and Isam Prado. Check out their handiwork above.
