Honestly I don’t need a camera or anything integrated but I’d love to have an integrated screen for my glasses. Would be nice when putting things together to just sync it with my phone and just have it there, also maps. Look I have to wear glasses all the time might as well add a tiny bit more utility.
But are they intigratable in pre existing glasses? My prescription is non negotiable due to how bad my eyesight is without and I can’t do contacts. Also having them sync with my phone and having them do little to no processing would be my preferred method, rather than having them contain all the computational shit themselves.
Ew USB C wired connection no thanks. This would legit be a hard non starter for me, in my experience USB C wears out relatively fast and tends to fuck up on the data connection side even if the charging still works. Honestly with this type of thing I’ll probably wait until I can just build my own thing, between proprietary bullshit and my own preferences it’d probably be better and piss me off less.
GPS with accelerometers should be able to work out where you’re standing and where you’re facing, so you could have navigation with a floating marker over the turn you need to take instead of just having a mini-map, too.
Kinda depends on the definition on that one, personally I would consider a IRL HUD to be a low level version of that since it would be intigraing those systems in a pretty intimate way.

These exist

No, they use a second set of prescription lenses for corrective lenses. They plug directly into your device via USB-C.

Maybe but I’d personally prefer the mini-map, I’ve a built up hatred of floating way points.
That’s not AR though is it?
