    Is X-Ray vision possible for Google Glass?

    I've seen some debate about this and I don't know what to believe. Personally I don't think that's possible.

    Is anyone more knowledgeable that can clarify this for me ?

    No it is definitely not possible. Just like any other device that captures images Glass uses a normal camera to do so. For X-Ray capabilities you need an electron emitting tube that costs thousands of dollars and irradiates also... All the apps that claim to have X-Ray capabilities are just click baits.

    I agree with you 100%. I am a doctor, those x-ray tubes are huge compared to mobile technology. Just forget about it. The smallest devices able to perform x-rays are the so called mobile ones which can be moved from one room to another and they weigh around 50kg...

    So they're mobile after all. Try to strap one of those on your head and see how it works )

    Thanks for your answer. I was pretty sure that was the case, but wanted to make sure

    I would imagine not, I'm sure the radiation it would require to be able to be used like that would fry your retina's.
