When I was a kid I was beaten up for having glasses that thick! Now they want people to think they're cool?

meh... maybe if they come with the blonde model...

As someone who is hearing impaired, I would *love* to use this technology to essentially have a HUD subtitle capability when I go to the movie theatre!

Like all of these glasses-displays, a t-shirt that says "DORK" is much cheaper.

The most important pitch: That girl is hot... really really hot and cute.

The most important catch: Even being a concept model, you still look like a dork using it.

As much as I'm interesting in something like that (at least so I can shout "IT'S OVER NINE THOUSANDDDD!!!"), this thing really needs a decent design and some wireless or more discreet way to receive data.

@J0hnP: Fuck the movie theater. I want subtitles on people I'm talking to. (and a translator for women)

that translator for woman would take YEARS to build!!....just one YEAR alone on emotions and facial movments..... another year or physical changes.......

but i can be done!

EMO GLASSES!

Be cool if it had it's own tech instead of requiring something to plug into it. I mean if this is the future, and flash drives NOW can be up to 4Gigs (8 for some MP3 Players), then in the future, it's not crazy to think a storage device could be small enough to fit into glasses without looking stupid.

Those glasses are not asian-nose friendly...

@ripfire4 & scoobyonline2000 lol, i'd buy it

they need to make these MUCH smaller. They should look like a pair if regular glasses with a small on/off button.
Maybe just put bluetooth and the projector in the glasses and have it hook up to a phone or laptop

@scoobyonline2000: that typo made the comment a lot more funny.

She puts the eek in Geek!

...

*Pants*

Is this the first time you guys have seen her? She's posted here before...

Sarah, you are lovely to look at.

I thought CES was for real products. Why oh why do they always turn it into the CES-PFDF Products from the distant future show!!! How many years did it take for them to bring those mobile projectors. And how many more before we can actually see it deployed in a phone or iPod for this device to work now!

Plug it in to an Intel MID and lets get this show on the road.

Web and linux based so all the code monkeys all over the world can make killer apps for it.

Give me a nice built in camera as well
Flash HD to record video and audio-so I can remember what i saw at the movies-cough-

Make them sync bluetoothily- so no wires.
-Wow. That was Easy.

To quote Martin Lawrence WHAT THE PROBLEM IS???

For those who think these are ugly... well, they are, but the final products won't look like that. The early prototypes were much smaller : these are reference designs and display models and thus can't really survive with just an ultra-thin front supporting it.

They were also planning wireless ones in the second generation. Bluetooth just doesn't have the bandwidth for it.

Be cool if it had it's own tech instead of requiring something to plug into it. I mean if this is the future, and flash drives NOW can be up to 4Gigs (8 for some MP3 Players), then in the future, it's not crazy to think a storage device could be small enough to fit into glasses without looking stupid.

The default model is/was supposed to come with VGA input so you wouldn't need a different model every time you switched from one device to the next. Comparable tech already has options like a iPod Video compatible input; that's up to manufacturers to implement. Given that the microdisplays pushing these glasses will be good for the better half of a decade, while the average iPod or other flash device won't stay compatible for three years, it's rather understandable that Lumus doesn't want to have a reference design with limitations as to storage space or inputs.

No doubt some company will hawk these things with integrated storage, but that's not likely to be on the reference design floor.

"The oil cans! Stay away from the oil cans! They're shooting the oil cans!"......"He hates those cans"

i wonder what my optometrist would say about prolonged use...

Denno megane!!!
Will we ever arrive to the augmented reality era?

This is a blessing for ugly chicks that don't get laid. I could hook some porn up to this contraption and wear it while tooling a not-so-hot girl... and actually enjoy it.

So this will project PORN directly intomy brain? I'll need two(2). Thanx!

Classy, PJ737. Does the girl you're doing this favor for get to wear one too?

Just when I thought bluetooth ear piece shouted "wanker" the most...

@Bokusatsu_Tenshi: "No. Leave the glasses on... for fun."

@pj737: I agree with Virgilicious. I get the feeling you're already executing that plan, without the girl ever being present.

"Cool, but too far in the future." I strongly disagree!

What booth number?

I can't speak for you, but I want one of these SO BAD. Combine one of these with an LCD-less laptop, and you have the perfect solution for taking notes during a lecture.

Furthermore, it solves the problem of "How do I deal with reading messages on my dinky cell phone screen without buying a massive phone."

Also, what about wireless USB? A wireless VGA adapter is simultaneously being shown at CES, so there's no question as to bandwidth.

Sarah, you can see right through me...I think.

Those glasses look like fist magnets.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Rub it in guys. I'd buy a pair for my hands... if only they had eyes.
