Sometime at parties I wish for a HUD that would show me people's name and the last time I saw them. On the other hand I dislike wearing glasses at social events, since I don't really need them.
- rebuilder 8y agoI really don't look forward to trying to politely explain why I don't like having my face uploaded into the facial recognition/person-tracking system that will involve.
- pavel_lishin 8y agoI do look forward to our cyberpunk future where to "opt out" of certain systems, you have to paint a certain mark on your face, or put a little QRCode sticker on your cheek. "Sorry, I'm only opted into Google Facemind and FacebookFace; I don't want to be indexed by Amazon Visage."

- Nition 8y agoCould be local only. New faces are saved as they're detected. Then later on your computer, add notes to the new faces ("John Smith, met 11/7/19 at Liz's party, programmer at Initech"). When those faces are re-detected, show the info text. Would certainly be nice if you could do a similar thing without needing a camera on the glasses at all though. How can we recognize a person reliably without seeing them? Maybe by their voice?
- baud147258 8y agoI agree. Of course such system have some pretty important downsides. I'll perhaps have to pay more attention to people then.
- mbo 8y agoThat would be great for people with face blindness.
- jpindar 8y agoParties in Virtual Worlds are great in this regard, since you can see not only someone's name but also their IM address, profile and sometimes notes you've made about them in the past. So I know I'd appreciate it in RL.
