I think LG and Samsung are working on similar systems.
The big issue will be to get the overlay to match the surroundings, so that a id box can be linked to the right person. Love how it is only visible from one side btw. Now when will it reach military and police as a replacement red dot sight? Or in the military sense, used as a air support aim (perhaps for loitering predator drones). One look, multiple kills (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

QUOTE (hobgoblin @ Jun 2 2011, 02:23 PM)  Now when will it reach military and police as a replacement red dot sight? Screw that, turn two of them into a pair of "smart goggles" and throw a camera on the gun with image recognition software. |

heh, i guess red dot sight was not the proper word. What i was thinking was a in view crosshair of sorts that would tell you where your gun was pointing, even when holding it barely up from the hip. And yes, worn in glasses form.
