So many ideas to implement with AR glasses like...

- Night/Day View - If nighttime see what it looks like in daytime

- Historical view - If im at X building or wherever how did it look years ago

- Facebook/Linkedin AR - See the name of stranger your talking to

I think AR glasses is the next big innovation!

These are silly and don't seem worth it to me, personally.

While I think AR for applications such as in-venue / in-store navigation might be cool, smart glasses still seem like a sub-par smartphone experience.

The facebook/linkedin AR, personally, does not sound so exciting... feels far too dystopian to me.
