I'm not sure that follows, PJ. I strongly suspect that AR glasses are MORE
likely to cause people to be oblivious to their surroundings. (There will be
lots more shiny things available to distract the wearer, and the interface
forces you to watch the glasses; you can't just turn your head away from them.)
I suppose we'll all find out sooner or later. I just hope it isn't too painful
for anyone.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

The thing is people are just talking on their phones - their eyes are free to
work as they should but their brains just cannot process the info. When your
eyes are shouting at you it will be even worse - for all of us - as I say I'm
massive but the number of people who have walked into my back and then accused
ME of not looking where I'm going makes me think it wont be just the accidental
death rate that will soar.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Some of us have been walking around with books in our hands since ... well,
since our mothers were warning us not to run with scissors.
[Don't know how they expected us to "cut and run", but that's mothers
for you....][ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

first things first with new tech: oh no the dangers!
reality: they made this about as unobtrusive as possible. From
what I've heard people say, it's not easy to see the interface
- you actually have to focus on it.
I really really really want to use one while I perform at one
of my orchestra concerts, just to give people the performer's
perspective.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
