The Web’s been abuzz with Google’s augmented reality glasses, Project Glass, ever since a promotional video hit Google Plus yesterday, publicly showing the potential for its new eyewear. But Rebellious Pixels’ Jonathan McIntosh thinks something is missing:

When I saw Google had somehow forgotten to include the ads in their Project Glass augmented reality promotional video – I just couldn’t resist fixing the oversight for them. So here is my slightly more realistic version of Google’s ADmented Reality glasses – now with Google Ads! Because let’s face it Google really is just a massive advertising company at heart.

 

The video, above, isn’t a farfetched representation. With commercials abound, McIntosh calls this reimagined and more realistic version Google’s ADmented Reality glasses.

The ads were found via Google searches based on the dialog, situation or setting, McIntosh noted. He also hopes the company isn’t irked by his parody. “I mean after all I’m just putting Google Ads overtop a Google video on Google’s video hosting service.” (He has a point.)
