google augmented reality glasses

[RMorgan]

Hi friends,

Check this out!

"Today, Google is revealing that it is taking concrete steps towards that vision with ProjectGlass, an augmented reality system that will give users the full range of activities performed with a smart phone — without the smart phone. Instead, you wear some sort of geeky prosthetic (one of those pictured is reminiscent of the visor that Geordi La Forge wore on “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” but Google has also been experimenting with a version that piggybacks on regular spectacles.)"

Seriously though, complete and utter disconnect from reality is what they are going for. 100% submission. Time to take a walk and look at nature...

I thought it was an April's fool joke. Browsed the web and... I don't think so anymore.

Makes me think of Minority Report. /pukes

Can you name any technology or instrument which do something which human cannot do ? Its a different matter of doing it slow or fast - but all human technology is a imitation of what a human can do naturally.
