So it might eventually be common to see people walking around moving their hands around in weird patterns and it will be normal.
Though I wonder if this well be considered safe for driving and work for perscription lenses.

I for one would kill to try one at least. I'm not sold yet since I have no idea how they plan to solve all the problems inherent with voice activated interfaces (mostly some random person speaking close to you activating the thing) but I'm dying to give it a shot.

Voice activation had been around for a while. I remember one of my second IBM PC (literally by IBM), with Windows 95 having some kind of voice activation thing. Of course, it did not work very well; and I did not use it at all. But, I knew it was there. Here we are in 2013... now, it'll be more readily available. Soon enough, such devices will be comparable to Smartphones (currently) in price.

I like the idea of Google Glass. Beyond consumer applications, I can think of a lot of uses for it in science research and clinical medicine. It'll probably be a while before it receives adoption in those areas, though.

Details emerge about Lockheed’s Cuda missile:
"More details are emerging about Lockheed Martin's prospective Cuda hit-to-kill missile system. According to a company product card being distributed at the Air Force Association's Air Warfare Symposium in Orlando, Florida, the weapon is a medium range air-to-air missile with a multi-mode seeker. "Cuda is a highly lethal interceptor that defeats targets by direct body-to-body impact," Lockheed says. "At impact, Cuda sweeps its mass directly through the target at a selected point of vulnerability." The company claims the Cuda will be a low cost weapon that will support "360° coverage", expand beyond visual range engagement zones and improve within visual range no-escape zones. It will also have extremely high-g maneuverability, Lockheed claims. The company says the weapon will be effective against enemy warplanes, unmanned aircraft and other air threats. The Lockheed product card seems to indicate that the weapon might have some air-to-surface and anti-ship applications in addition to its air combat role."
