Ashley Lasanta has cerebral palsy, and for the first time in her 23 years, she was able to snap – and then share – a photograph, all without the use of her hands.

"It was awesome," she says. "I take pictures of just about anything."

The device she used wasn’t a traditional camera. It was Google Glass, the thumb-sized computer that's worn like a pair of glasses. With just a tilt or a nod of the head and a few spoken phrases, Lasanta can record videos, send emails, browse the web far faster than before, play games and, thanks to the wealth of recipes online, hang out in the  kitchen and help with cooking.
