I still think smart-glasses has a chance to come back. If you think about it, combined with AR and hand-tracking, they can make everything that has a screen obsolete.
Your smart-glass will replace your TV, Laptop, Console, Watch, Camera, and of course Phone.
- minot 6y agoI think the biggest blocker is battery life. What is the minimum display resolution I’d need in submerging like steam vr but wired power where I can do basic web development like with an ide open, a browser and it’s inspect window all open? Traditionally this is the 1080p monitors. What would be the equivalent in vr?
- fbelzile 6y agoMaybe not replace, but at least displace the phone, watch, camera. I think one of the major hurdles with smart-glasses isn't tech, it's the changing of social norms. Right now, if you walk down the street waving your hands in the air, you'll look like a crazy person. When people first started using cellphones, from the outside, it didn't look much different than looking down at a book or portable gaming device.

- RedNifre 6y agoThat's incorrect, when people were first using mobile phones they did look like crazy people, because people were used to phones being stationary. Waving your hands in the air without a physical input device present would just be the same shift.

By capturing all your input-output signals over your lifetime it can upload your personality so your digital self becomes immortal. Of course, smart glasses will be only part of your digital self logging.
