Google Glass is an amazing product, but can make the wearer seem a little geeky.

Google Glass is an amazing product, but can make the wearer seem a little geeky. The goal of this project is to compensate for that, by using the Google Glass camera to identify a barcode on a non-geeky cultural product you are given in a social situation (say a book or vinyl LP), and then provide a private display with cues of clever things to say about it. This will probably come from online reviews, but your software will need to spot the barcode, find the reviews, and distil them into a few words that make the wearer seem as smart as possible.
