Wondering how we’re doing on echolocation or if sensors that are less invasive but still useful might be tolerated in public. The device might identify objects generically… Maybe there’s some middleground between useful and perverted.
So there are certainly some valid use cases. They could be useful for surgeries, engineering design work, surveying, etc. None of these have you wearing them all the time or in social areas through. It’s a niche product they need to focus on those markets and stop trying to force mass adoption. It’s the same as AI.

If they didn’t have a camera they’d be pointless, there’s really no reason to have a screen on your face if it wasn’t to help AR the world.
Which is why it’s going to need an extremely valid reason to use them aside from being a creeper.
I’d use them to subtitle everything because i’m deaf
Yeah I’ve long said these could be a useful accessibility tool for those of us who can’t hear

Look around. People have a screen on their face 24/7. Currently they need their hand to hold it there.
Maybe you mean there is no need for a camera on your face. That I agree with.
Lidar, rather than a camera. Allows it to create a 3d model of what’s in front of it without being able to take pictures itself
Get away with watching YT at work? Reclaim hours of my life, that’s my end goal.

There’s a YouTube guy that made his own and uses it as a teleprompter during his videos. Certainly a niche use case.
Not these devices but Zach Freedman of Voidstar Labs uses a single eye display as a teleprompter.
funny, I see it as a privacy nightmare and a tool for the worst kind of creep.

good for you.
There is no market for such niches.
