Android Photosphere Code Samples - android

I'm looking for good Android code samples for Photosphere, particularly for Google Glass if possible. I've found some basic documentation here https://developers.google.com/photo-sphere/android/ and here http://developer.android.com/reference/com/google/android/gms/panorama/package-summary.html, but I can't find anything comprehensive enough to get me started.
Does anyone know of any good code samples? Or is Photosphere development on Glass even available yet (I know of the photosphere easter egg, but can't find a way to code it myself)?

Photosphere was only added into the settings of Google Glass specifically for the easter egg. It is much like Google Play Services near the beginning. They built their own version for there use and that is it. Development for it is not supported and not accessible by any third party applications.

Android custom tts voice

I have done a lot of research around the topic. What I want is simply a custom voice (not default voice on device) for my app. Wherever I have searched people suggest using device default.
Best example is Jarvis app on Play store.
I would like to create a uniform experience on any device with this approach. Can someone suggest any good libraries or a way to achieve this?
There is tacotron from google for this purpose.
But i am not sure if the android version is available yet.
Its under developement and probably google assistent is using it.
But they use mostly cloud version on python.

How to do live streaming in google glass through android code?

How to do live streaming in google glass through android code, i am using eclipse IDE to develop android apps. I have downloaded GDK and created the project using GDK. I have browsed for live video streaming, i didnt get any blogs related to that(i dont know how to use Mirror API to do live streaming )..Can anyone helped me to go up?
If you're using the GDK, then you can just use the standard android VideoView or MediaPlayer. It's explained pretty well in the Android API Guide. http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/mediaplayer.html
You probably want to build and test this in Android first (a phone or emulator). That should be faster since it's easier to interact with the touch screen. Once you have that working you can load it onto your Glass and proceed from there.
As far as I know there isn't a way to do this with the Mirror API. Only with the GDK.

Is there an Android based Google Glass Emulator?

Is it possible to define an Android Virtual Device for use to develop Google Glass apps (until the devices become widely available)?
There's no official Glass Emulator yet.
I overcame this via installing Glass APKs into Nexus 7 tablet.
It worked perfectly:
I can control it in http://google.com/myglass
Mirror API works flawlessly.
GDK Sneak Peak doesn't work.
I described all the required steps here:
http://www.elekslabs.com/2013/11/google-glass-development-without-glass.html
There isn't an out the box emulator.
You can use the playground to preview your cards, this will show you how your card will be laid out depending on what attributes you provide in your timeline post object. On the right. Just switch that view on the right to HTML if you want to provide a custom HTML template for your cards.
Yes you can.. Use your phone as google glass.

here are infos about an available emulator for people without google glass

and a project on github
Scarigami Mirror API
As a matter of fact, I just saw an Engadget article (this morning I think) that announced that the Google Glass API is now live
Additional links from the Engadget article:
https://plus.google.com/+GoogleDevelopers/posts/cwWuUY6xYKW (Originaly announced on)
https://developers.google.com/glass/ (The ACTUAL Link to the API) :-)
However, as the developer site lists, there is nothing specific for Android. :-(
(Source: https://developers.google.com/glass/downloads/)
The supported platforms at the moment are:
Java
Python
Go
PHP
.NET
Ruby
Dart
I've been digging the docs all this morning and as far as I understood, you can see what type of code/objects would be sent to the Glass using the same code on the example https://glass-java-starter-demo.appspot.com/ (code available here https://github.com/googleglass/mirror-quickstart-java )
But an actual emulator that you can see how what the Glass screen would be showing, not really.
There is an Unofficial Mirror API that tries to reproduce the behaviour of glass device with the existing Google API's.
you can check it here. I have not tested it yet.
http://glass-apps.org/google-glass-emulator
According to google, Glass has to be treated as a unique platform. And the apps developed for glass are called as Glasswares. And they're all almost web-based services which are hosted in GAE. Official statement says,
The Google Mirror API allows you to build web-based services, called
Glassware, that interact with Google Glass.
Of-course glass runs on ICS Android 4.0.4 which doesn't mean you can develop glasswares as much as like developing android apps. You need Google's Mirror API to sync data between your glass and glasswares.
And as of now, it's in explorer state and only developers and explorers who has google glass are having access to Mirror API. But as #infoman answered, you can use the Scarigami Mirror API and playground can be acting as your emulator.

Is Google Drive RealTime API for Android?

Does Google Drive RealTime API still not support Android? I did it using JavaScript but want to use it in Android. I don't think it does exist cause no official blogs say that and it doesn't even appear on the Developers site. Is there any alternative for these purpose? Or I need to just do it all myself till Google announces anything? And if so can you please suggest me should I put everything on my server and send it to devices using GCM; or should I use Google App Engine?
A very similar question here: StackOverflow Question. But I even found these links saying it does Link 1, Link 2. So any updates?Please help thanks :)
Currently Realtime API does not support Android, sorry.
BUT! Google are working on this, and it should be available quite soon. Google are excited about the possibility of users collaborating simultaneously between web and mobile apps in real time. That is going to rock!
