Okay go sue Apple when they make a glove.

 

[killabanks]

the best offence is defence

 

[dheadley]

Where are all the people screaming about the fact that there are already a bunch of smartgloves of this type being shown off for years now?

If it WAS Apple looking to patent it there would be pages of complaints about it listing all the prior art in the tech industry and even "Minority Report did this years ago!" comments.

Welcome to the world iCrap enabled by its herd of moronic users has created. At some point companies have to decide not to play by that game. Apple is the most disgusting company in the world, and now others are joining it. Break the trend Google. You are powerful enough to say NO to this kind of patent trolling.

Cameras, sensors...Smart condoms; we need smart condoms.
If anyone can help us in the search for the 'G-Spot' than it's got to be "G"oogle.

Here's the Deal - you CAN actually patent the GLOVE itself - not WHAT the glove can do.

Got that Patent Office?????

 

[airanp]

Good for Google. Glad they beat apple to the punch on this one. Now they just have to get their glasses protected before apple patents that.

Enough with the ads Tom's, PLEASE! I expect a few, but on every page, c'mon. It makes navigating this site a horrible experience.

Speak for yourself, I have no trouble locating it. I can send instructions...but I'll have to charge you.

Get rid of the glove. Device free gesture input is the future, not a fashionable peripheral.

Although, as Apple, Samsung, IBM, and the rest have taught us, it never hurts to patent the crap out of everything, good or bad.

Hmmm, looks like an upgraded Power Glove to me. I've seen Nintendo Power Glove hacks that work with Windows PC and were programed with a whack of macro's. Use a power glove and a Kinect for PC and it would seem to give the same results. Nothing new here. (except wireless, whew what a discovery!)

WTF are you smoking?

The irony of people praising Google for patenting a glove while deriding Apple for patenting a rectangle.

 

[master_chen]

But...but...but what about Power Glove? Can Nintendon't sue Gluegle?

So all gloves have a mini computer in them?

Well, actually...yes. ...back in 2018 law enforcement agencies around the world came together and created the United Porn Glove Monitoring Act.

iFap incoming, 2016

Anyway, good on google patenting this. May be similar to the PowerGlobe, but what they took here was the IDEA AND TECH BACKGROUND, instead of the DESIGN AND LOOKS, like Apple did.

 

[Guest]

Nintendo should sue them.

Man our patent system is so broken its not even funny anymore.

 

[killerclick]

Yeah, I don't want to wear gloves. Integrate motion sensing into those glasses. And I don't want them having CPUs, big batteries or other stuff, just have them connect to the phone in my pocket.

Get on it Google, it's 2012 already and the future has been very disappointing so far.

 

[alidan]

i remember when the screansavers was still around, they demoed something like this on there... how is this new now?

Hey why don't you start working to develop what you want. No one is stopping you. Google is going to develop the future the way they see it.

And here I was expecting a rip off of the power glove. I'm glad it isn't. ^_^
