Director of Apple said that existing technology to make smart HUD (Head Up Display) glasses possible. The reason why those lightweight HUD-screens are so difficult to design is that there is not so light and effective batteries what makes those everyplace mobile HUD-screens possible. But both military and civilian engineers are working with those things. Virtual reality glasses are actually exist but they are quite heavy to be comfortable to use in outside of office. Those glasses would make use of mobile telephone more comfortable and secure than normal screens.
If people have VR-screen on his face, and they want to do something confidential, anyone can brake their privacy with telescopes, or simpler method is just stand after target person, and look over his shoulder. That kind of things make VR glasses more sophisticated than people never think. Problem is that those kind of things need very much power, if power source should set inside sunglasses, and should give power supply to VR technology what communicates via Bluetooth with mobile telephone, and one problem of those glasses is that it should not disturb people normal vision, so the technology what might use in those new mobile screen systems might basis of camera, what takes film what will put to VR screens what might look like sunglasses.
And this picture will change with other picture what might be homepage or other data. If this jump between picture what mobile phone sends to glasses and cameras picture is fast enough people sees combination of picture which is from the net and real life picture. But this solution needs lots of electric and computing power, and battery and computer must carry at pocket or canvas back
Use of those screens is very easy, if people have same kind of system what Stephen Hawking has, in those solutions what register eye movements to calibrate cursor and pressing "enter" could be just blinking eye. Problem is with electric supply and that kind of system needs data processing power, and that's why those equipment are useful in short time and they need to connect to powerful computer, what could carry in the canvas bag, But that's not comfortable. Military wants to put those intelligent glasses to work with optical seekers so example snipers can choose their shooting position freely.
There have been optical sights what bases their technology to VCR-cameras. Sometimes snipers have used modified video cameras as sights, and in that allows them to keep rifle outside window, and when sniper looks that sights what are cameras LCD-screen those guys can hire themselves from fire. That's reason why military is so interesting about those lightweight screens what can use from anywhere where their men are going. From those lightweight screens can those men look their personal orders, but they can connect their smart classes to their weapons cameras what makes possible to shoot like some western hero. And that would give them more effect to their weapons.
But those smart classes gives more opportunities also for civilians. If somebody connects those smart classes to his car's control systems, they could have all control data to their HUD-displays. And car might also have infrared cameras in mask what allows them to drive all weather, because infrared just strips of weather like rain and gives sharp picture on road to driver even in bad weather. Also doctors would like those Virtual Reality instruments. Those glasses could give them good picture from endoscopes and checking X-ray pictures is easier when doctor can use VR-glasses. And also remote controlled cars are useful to drive in virtual reality.
