Strongly disagree that this will be as revolutionary as the iphone. The iphone, and smart phones as a platform were revolutionary largely because of how portable they are.
This is much more comparable to a laptop than a phone, and it doesn't introduce new communications technology like the iphone did with there now being near universal real time access to people's cameras and gps location.
This feels like what the apple watch was to the iphone but instead to the MacBook pro.
Unfortunately, I strongly disagree with this comment as well. It is because how portable this device is, you have to think about the... Imagine you have an infinite amount of screen just in your pocket. What you say causes what you do, and that's a huge thing.
Except even regular sunglasses are often inconvenient to carry around. So this will never get in your pocket.
The rear revolution will be when the info goes directly to our brain, bypassing the eyes. VR headsets looks to me like half assed interim "what if" devices.
Good point. Remember, they demonstrate that they put these devices as a module, so I'm not sure it is possible to make it a portable device. You can easily get rid of part of the panel part and put it into a very small bag, and the rest of things can just like a rope, something similar to those things, you can easily fold them into small spaces. I'm actually thinking the same thing as you. The real revolution is going to be directly connecting our brains, so we don't bother using our eyes to kind of sensor our physical world, that's kind of like the matrix. I'm not sure that's going to be in the near future or in the life we have, but I'm really looking forward to that kind of scenario.
