Microvision has been touting those projectors for at least most of a decade now. They're so incredibly awesome, if they work and don't have major drawbacks, that I conclude they don't really work. :(
- warfangle 17y agoThey've shown actual products working, most notably at e.g. CES. Wonder why they haven't brought them to market yet? I'm thinking they're still rather expensive to produce.
- randallsquared 17y agoIf they don't fail in some obvious way (low battery life; heavy or wearing on the ears and nose; risk of damage to the eye; can't produce true color; or something), I'd happily pay thousands of dollars for one, and I can imagine many, many other people would as well, which would help them drive costs down. At first I thought they were holding out for a large contract from the DoD or something, but after this long I just assume there's something critically wrong with them (one of the above), or that the managers are idiots who can fail to profit from having warehouses of gold. :)
