Sergey Brin demos Project Glass on stage at Google I/O

[![STUB Project Glass TKTKTK][1] ][2]

It's hard to ignore [Google's X Lab-born][3] [Project Glass][4]. News of the slim-lined, scifi goggles' existence [first surfaced this past February][5] and it wasn't long after that Mountain View's own elite began to [flaunt the heads-up display in public][6]. While little of the device's true purpose and functionality is known, we have been privy to certain features over the past few months, like [photo sharing to Google+][7] and even its ability to overlay Maps. Though product lead Steve Lee shrugged off [rumors of a late 2012 launch][8], it does appear the company's itching to spill a few more (jelly) beans at today's I / O conference.

Sergey Brin just rushed onstage at Google I/O wearing the glass units to give us a brief demo courtesy of a skydive over San Francisco. Video of the jump is being streaming live through Google Hangouts to attendees at the Moscone Center..
