  For personal security, monitoring illegal police acts, sure. As a means for letting people who can't come be part of the action? That would get annoying real quick unless the wearer stared in one direction all the time You'd want to treat the "controller" end (as opposed to the "ground agent" end) as augmented reality. http://www.g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/725013/hands-on-with-oculus-rift-john-carmacks-virtual-reality-goggles/ http://www.g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/725013/hands-on-with-o... The "controller" would inhabit a 3D virtual reality, moving smoothly along with "ground agent" with a "window" displaying the video. The "controller" would have to turn his point of view to see the window too. The "controller" wouldn't be just a passive observer, but would be providing intel to the "ground agent."

  It'd be interesting if it was a larger view and the parts that the wearer isn't currently looking at is merely blurred out. That way you'd just have the in-focus viewport changing and updating while still having a larger sense of what was previously looked at. Not sure how that'd work for the camera-wearer actually moving around... but yeah.
