What are monitor glasses?
Can you please tell me if there are glasses that can be used instead of a monitor? There are Google Glasses (the project is more dead than alive), Hololens (non-public prototype), a whole series of devices for athletes.
What I would like is glasses that can be connected to a computer or phone as a monitor and get a translucent picture (with brightness control, from almost transparent to completely overlapping the surrounding world). Then you can connect a miniature radio keyboard with a mouse and work on the go, in any position and place, without having to take out a laptop (it can be left in a backpack outside).
Is this realistic today? Or is it still at the level of futuristic fantasies?
Thank you.

You don't need glasses. Because focusing on an object located at the tip of the nose is quite difficult. Try to see the tip of your nose :)
You need to "see" the monitor behind the glasses. Well, that is, its hallucinatory prototype :) That is, you do not need glasses (optical image converter), but ARE (Augment Reality Engine, augmented reality device), which will "draw" you in the visual field at the border of about 60-70 cm "monitor" and "display" an image on it :)
But so far, such devices exist only in cyberpunk fiction :) However, when the element base allows this, most likely there will already be a direct interface to the brain...
Projection directly onto the retina, Virtual Retinal Display is a no-hassle focusing option. Intel tried to make a product and bring it to market, but later curtailed the project. Video presentation .
Here is another video from SIGGRAPH 2018 "how to make a retina projector yourself". Yeah..
There will never be points like this.
Let's do a simple experiment. Close one eye. Bring your finger (or any object) close to your open eye. It's like an image on glasses-monitors. You can even take real glasses and stick something on them, a piece of paper with an inscription. Now try to focus. Does not work? Weird. It was such a brilliant idea...
Even in VR, lenses are used, which results in a lot of problems, including eye fatigue. But you want translucency in general in order to see the real world around - and this cancels the lenses and makes the implementation of the idea impossible.
and what is there to fantasize, huh? we take any virtual reality helmet, show images from cameras on it, overlay another image in picture-in-picture mode on the image. So where is my lemon?
Yes, I saw it in a movie. An interesting thing. If you find it let me know.
Didn't find what you were looking for?
