The biggest mistake anyone who thinks 'these look ugly' makes is assuming that this first draft is the end all be all.
This is most definitely the clunker of a stepping stone a lot of revolutionary devices start out as.
Eventually it's going to be on contact lenses anyway.. (or maybe brain implants.)
- moe 14y agoMaybe I'm in a minority but since I don't wear glasses nor contacts I feel reluctant to insert anything into my eyes unless absolutely needed (i.e. for eyesight). However, other than that I agree with you. I'll just be sticking to the glasses form factor (when it's indistinguishable from normal glasses).
- bathat 14y agoWell... but it isn't really the first draft of the technology, is it? Steve Mann was doing basically the same thing 15 years ago with equipment that wasn't really a whole lot more clunky. In fact, that's really the reason I can't get behind Glass as the Next Big Thing: I've wanted something like this for the better part of two decades and the display technology continues to suck. Edit to add: Look here: http://wearcam.org/netcam.html http://wearcam.org/netcam.html That webpage hasn't been edited for a decade (a decade, that's 10 years), and it has a better-looking display unit (see the picture captioned "late 90's").
