Heads up-- the future is here. Google Glass has been distributed to approximately 2,000 developers in the US and more are on their way. In the past few months, developers and designers have been testing the best way to navigate the creation of apps using wearable technology.

Visualizing data for a heads up display is a completely new experience for designers and developers. The launch of wearable devices like Google Glass and Smartwatches are shaking up the field of data visualization in industries ranging from health and fitness to real-time polling. Join us in this interactive Meetup as we:

Explore Glass through a live demo Google Hangout with the Glass Wedgies (http://glasswedgies.com/) team, a team exploring realtime polling and data visualization on the device and Breakout into small groups to learn more about developing and designing for Glass. AGENDA:
