    Hopefully we’ll see AR become more common place and easily integrated with glasses. Imagine being at a gathering and you can look at someone and get their name, maybe their LinkedIn or other profile. Directions overlaid right in front of you for navigation. Going to a sports game and seeing player stats above the player. Things like that.

      Sounds like a privacy nightmare honestly. Also a kind of black mirror like social point system.

      Navigation is the only one that sounds neat, but also a bit brain rotting. I already don’t know where I am half the time because of navigation.

      I’d like more basic things, like a floating music player, sticky notes/todo list, notifications bar or video/text, when looking at a restaurant seeing the reviews and menu with order options, looking at a product and getting more info. Just stuff that I’d need to manually look up otherwise or things that would be infinitely better without being hunched over a handheld device.

        I really want historic photos overlaid on top of existing buildings. I’d love to walk down Chicago and see in real time what it looked like 100 years ago.
