Are you kidding me? Transparent displays when scaled sufficiently will allow AR glasses that don't suck. Complex tasks will have AR overlays telling people exactly what to do and giving feedback on task performance in real time. Even better, all the VR side effects due to refresh rate/fps/etc will be non-issues because you'll be looking at the real world.
- caslon 3y agoThis isn't actually the case; we've had transparent displays for years, and they don't help AR. Hold your finger to your eye. Can you make out its prints? Existing AR/VR displays are a hack around the human focal length, not a hack around solid displays.

The human eye generally can't properly focus anything closer than 10cm. Maybe we could have a face shield with a transparent display and this way we could hold it just far enough so it can be in focus. The only way we can make "smart glasses" is with some expensive optics.
