Google Glass to be Banned From Caesar’s Casino

Google Glass, a wearable computer with a head-mounted display that can take pictures and videos, will not be permitted in Caesar’s Palace Casino.

A Caesar’s Palace representative released the following statement:

“Nevada gaming regulations (and those in other states, as well) prohibit the use of computers or recording devices when gambling. As a result, we cannot allow guests who are gambling to wear Google Glass.”

Google Glass allows an individual to take a photograph by simply issuing the voice command “take a picture”.  It is essentially a display touchpad, battery and microphone built into spectacle frames.
