I’d be interested in them for like hud reasons but I wouldn’t want a camera or mic in them which is what they seem to think people want.

Just a wireless HUD, with eye tracking, and agnostic to connected tech. (Camera is needed for this, but needs a manual kill switch on the device)

That is all that is needed from the glasses.

Wearable tech is going to need to be modular, replaceable, and reparable...

All things big tech companies hate right now.

A hud would be cool I suppose. You never know when you need to check someone's power level.

It requires a camera to do any remotely useful HUD stuff. If you want automatic translation, or in-world displays, it needs to see the world.

Yeah I don’t want any of that though
