Google Glass provides a unique platform that can be easily extended to become a vision‐enhancement tool for people with impaired vision. The authors have implemented augmented vision on Glass that places enhanced edge information over a wearer's real‐world view. This article is based on the paper, “Augmented Edge Enhancement for Vision Impairment Using Google Glass,” to be presented at the 2014 Display Week technical symposium on Wednesday, June 4.
