I totally agree with this. I think Google was ahead of its time with Google Glass and I think something like that could catch on in a future where the hardware and software are more robust. Driving/walking directions, real time translation...some great potential for useful applications!
It has great potential, but I worry that it'll make technology even more intrustive into everyday life.

Google glass was my thought too. It was just way ahead of its time, but google absolutely had the right idea
