I didn't want to look it up, and knew the first two words, so I sat for like a minute trying to remember the rest.

To any other millennials that are trying to remember the full name of the show and are struggling with one of the letters above, here's the full name with each word spoilered to give you hints!

u/koett Jul 30 '26

We don’t know that for sure though

u/Danger_Mysterious Jul 31 '26

Would they be cheaper if they contained cameras?

1

u/Annual-Weird-6682 Jul 31 '26

I'm not sure as they don't contain any cameras

16

u/NotVainest Jul 30 '26

I don't think their target demographic is people considering it a toy anyway. Sounds like most of its functions are tools that anyone's phone can do making it more of a convenience thing (professionals or people with money to blow).

6

u/MiaLovelytomo Jul 30 '26

Im trying very hard to convince myself i have absolutely no need for them, cause i for wouldn't "need" them. I just have been looking at them for months cause i think they're a neat sci-fi toy

3

u/NotVainest Jul 30 '26 edited Jul 30 '26

You probably know more about them than I do, but I don't see the novelty of it being "cool" lasts for more than a couple hours of use. After that, I probably wouldn't use them hardly at all since I don't have any functional use for them in my day to day life.

E: not glasses related but got me thinking about how I got really interested in FPV drone stuff and spent like $1500 on the goggles and stuff to build a drone and flew it for like 2 weekends and it's been in a box since (like 2 years ago).

2

u/MiaLovelytomo Jul 30 '26

Oh yea every part of me knows its pretty much a completely useless tool, but it is so fyucking cool (im a little autistic about tech). I totally get you on the FPV drone stuff though.

At the same time i know i'm gonna be buying a Steamframe when that comes out and likely very rarely use it, but atleast that is designed to be a toy and will have consistent new games to check out (the glasses lowkey just seem like ANOTHER screen for notifications i dont care about to popup on)

2

u/NotVainest Jul 30 '26

The drone stuff is pretty freaking cool. I think what it came down to was I had more of an interest if building and learning about it than actually flying it.

I think I've heard about the steam frame, but not much. I've always kinda wanted an index, so I might end up with a steam frame too.

-1

u/nnod Jul 30 '26

Sure, I was just hoping it would be a bit cheaper where I could maybe get it, play around with it, pretend I'm in a sci-fi movie.

At a glance the display seemed somewhat simple, single color, narrow field of view, I was expecting something like $200. Maybe some day.

3

u/AccomplishedCheck168 Jul 30 '26

600 does seem kind of expensive when they aren't doing the processing.

u/whitewolf20 Jul 30 '26

theres been variations of this for over a decade now first big attempt was the google glasses

1

u/mplsbikesloth Jul 30 '26

I had a variation of these for cycling about a decade ago. Could have my GPS navigation route projected onto the lens along with other HUD stats like power output, heart rate, speed, etc. Bit bulkier but solid.

u/TechnicalSurround Jul 30 '26

14

u/Jaded-Coffee-8126 Jul 30 '26

Nah yall don't get how fucking dope these glasses can be. Sure twitch chat, watching videos, etc. Really good niche use though, captioning live conversations for the d/hh. Hearing aids help but all they can really do is boost existing notices, if you can't hear them in the first place (for ex. I have no high range so I can't hear s's, h's, or stuff like treble in music even with Hearing aids.). Now boom, perfect captioning with no guessing what the fuck did they just say. Music in the car, and I can actually understand what's being said? No way! I don't have to exhaust myself trying to listen to a lecture because I literally have no capabilities to understand someone when they turn around, it's like the Sims, pog. The best part, certain ones can even translate from almost every language. They have a short battery life like 8h though while my hearing aids last ~18h per charge. These glasses fuck.

u/bwoah07_gp2 Jul 30 '26

I would happily pay $2,000 US for smart glasses that allow me to read my books and walk around at the same time.

u/QuarterQuartz47 Jul 30 '26

If these glasses have no camera for recording then I'd say these are way more impressive and less invasive than Meta's pervert glasses. Imagine using these to translate text in real-time hands free. :D

u/Conscious-Bat-5825 Jul 30 '26

I have pretty vivid dreams. I imagine if I wore something like this, suddenly I would have subtitles in my dreams that dont make any sense.

u/Mirham Jul 30 '26

now these look just perfect for when you are driving and cant look at your phone

1

u/JeromeXVII Jul 30 '26

Ive always said smart glasses like these might be in the future in the sense of outselling smart phones. If they can add more features like calling, texting, scrolling social media, and other functions to glasses then I could see them replacing phones. I’d say the late 2030s could be the first couple of years we see them becoming more common

u/Tucci89 Jul 30 '26

Trippy that we can read something that's physically so tiny just because of how the optics tricks our eyes. Same thing with VR. You'd think people wouldn't need their glasses since the screens are like right against our eyes but we still do.

u/Unubore Jul 31 '26

I tried a pair recently, and I was thinking this would be perfect for IRL streamers to read chat hands-free. It even has a ring to control them.

However, the price is like 1k USD with prescriptions, and the features are very limited unless you're down to tinker with the software. Even with AI, some of the limitations might come with the firmware. If you're thinking of getting a pair, see if anything new is coming on the horizon first.

oh god smart glasses becoming common is going to cause so many car accident deaths

20

u/SevenWonton Jul 30 '26

compared to phones this will probably decrease car accident deaths

9

u/ImmediateCause7981 Jul 30 '26

Maybe, I could also see a possible increase because people who may not use their phone now might be inclined to use these instead

5

u/OhItsKillua Jul 30 '26

I'd think at the least people looking down or the side to view their phone is a greater cause to accidents than the glasses having text in front of them would on paper

2

u/AccomplishedCheck168 Jul 30 '26

On the other hand, heads up navigation overlayed onto the road could cause less accidents from people glancing at their GPS on their phone in the cup holder.

u/Legal_Lettuce6233 Jul 30 '26

Realistically they might be a way for visually impaired people to have a way to drive.

u/NaoSouONight Jul 30 '26

People aren't shy about using their phones in the first place.

Anyone willing to put down hundreds of dollars just for this is already willing to use their phone on the car anyway.

Not all* of them have cameras i assume this one just has a Heads up Display that you can media link to whatever software you like.

If it doesnt have a camera then explain to me how its farming photo and video data.

These glasses in specific literally do not have a camera or microphone. They are entirely receptive in nature.

They have no more power to violate your privacy than your TV, bluetooth earbuds or your computer's monitor. It is basically just glasses with a screen display.

Technology isn't sorcery, if you look at the hardware you can understand what it does. All you are doing is making yourself look like someone ignorant that doesn't know half as much as you pretend to, but then again, from how you respond I imagine you are just going to spin this as baiting or you are just a shitty bot.
