As part of the December software update, Google Glass wearers can now take photos by winking.
In the latest software update for the wearable technology, users can now take photos by winking in the direction of the object they want to photograph.
The device’s built-in camera registers the movement of the eye to take the shot and to make sure this movement isn’t mistaken for a blink, the wink will need to be exaggerated to register.
Google added that the feature could one day also be used to pay for goods, or to wink at pages in a recipe book and make the instructions appear on the screen.
Other new features in the December software update include the option to upload YouTube videos straight from the gadget by tapping on the video, or swiping to the YouTube share card. Google has also added the 'ok glass, share with YouTube' voice command.
Elsewhere, users will soon be able to see Hangout conversations on the screen and +Google music play subscribers will be able to control playlists through Google Glass. There's also a new lock screen -similar to those found on Android phones and tablets to prevent other people from accessing the device without permission. Google announced that the iOS app is ready but wont be available until a later software update.
