Hey everyone! I'm a little new here but I've come for your help! I am a young aspiring umpire out of Southwestern Virginia. I am 23 years old and currently attending university. This will be my 4th year in my association. But that is just a little introduction to my experience (I also do travel/rec/club games). The reason I am here at U-E is to introduce an awesome concept that I have been working on. Google currently offers an item called Google Glass. These are glasses that function much like a cell phone in the fact that they can access navigation, take pictures, Google search, make videos, text message, etc. (Here's a link: http://www.google.com/glass/start/ ). However, I am mostly interested in the video aspect since the video is taken exactly at eye level. I want to wear a pair behind the plate for a few of my games this year. This could be revolutionary for how the game is watched! The glass is incredibly small (so no distractions) plus they would conveniently fit behind the protection of my mask. There are 2 problems: availability and price. The first problem was solved about a week ago when Google sent me a purchase code (which I had to apply for and was about a year and half ago). So that leaves me with the cost. Being a college student means by "means" are frugal to say the least. But I truly believe this could be unprecedented. So I have ended up here hoping you would like to help my cause. I am crowd-funding to raise money to purchase the glasses. If you believe this could be incredible as well please donate anything! Every dollar counts! http://www.gofundme.com/72njj0 Plus if Umpire-Empire can help me raise the funds you guys will get exclusive access to the footage. I know I'm not in the minors and this is high school baseball, but it could all start here! Thanks, J
