Google glasses.

I think they are rushing it out very prematurely.

 

My phone has a clever vision mode, where you look through the camera viewer and it shows you the location of restaurants or shops in real time using the compass.

 

That's great for central London, or NYC, but when you are using it at home, you just get a mismatch of misinformed locations, shops that don't exist, and people running hair cutting services from their home address. It is all based from the information stored on google maps, which I often find to be dreadfully innacurate or poorly compiled.

 

Totally pointless gimmick. Trying to make the future happen when there isnt the information to run it usefully.

 

Next year they might be smart enough to tell you that you are looking at an oak tree leaf, or a maple leaf, but its going to be 10-20 years before it can run a tree inspection or anything.... and then you can take them off again... so why do they have to be wearable? Just have a specific purpose tool.

 

Waste of time and money.
