The first thing I think is a HUD that can see around corners and behind you for aviation and even driving. I really like the idea of having a 3D box to see everything within 1000ft. It would be super useful to reduce collisions for certain types of aviation, paragliding and skydiving specifically. Most of the skydiving fatalities in recent years have been collisions.


I'm not saying I can't see uses for them, I just hate that they're probably going to become trendy. People are going to walk around with these things on their faces 24/7.

It's bad enough when you're talking to someone and they're pulling their phone out of their pocket every minute to scroll through something, but now, they won't even have to do that, it will already be on their face.
