If information is superimposed directly into the field of vision of a pair of glasses, these glasses are called smart glasses (Wearables)
They can be seen as a new interface between Man and machine
Very often a bluetooth connection with a smart phone is used in order to link smart glasses to a network.
With this additional information can be obtained by the user in his familiar environment.
The display is controlled via head movements, a touchpad (integrated in the headband) or the voice.
In the industry additional interaction with machines can be found where different devices send information to the user automatically.
Smart glasses allow work processes to be simplified and accelerated.

If it comes to an exchange of data between several client server applications, it is vital for the operating system to channel the data packages to ensure a proper delivery.
The channels in which the data packages are bundled are called ports and part of a network address.
Since ports are described with 16bit we can find 65535 different software ports on a computer.
These ports are categorized into:
– 0 to 1023 = Well-known Ports also called system ports
– 1024 to 49151 = Registered Ports also called user ports
– 49252 to 65535 = Dynamic/Private Ports
If data is exchanged using the http-protocol the port 80 is used for example.
In order to increase security within a network it is wise to close all ports that are not used.
This can be done by a firewall.
Some more well known software ports are:
21 – for FTP up- and download
25 – SMTP – to sent e-mails (similar to port 465)
110 – POP3 – to receive e-mails from an e-mail server

If a USB device, such as a printer or an external hard disk, is to be integrated into an existing network (LAN), a USB server is required.
This enables several computers connected to the network to access the device.
The USB server has an RJ45 connection, as well as its own power supply and a socket for connecting USB devices.
The USB device is configured and made visible on the network using special software or a web interface.
The connected USB device can be used in the network via an assigned IP address (static or via DHCP).
