A generation ago having a private phone conversation in public was just for dicks and drongos but I think most people have got used to it now (although I still double take when someone next to me says "Hi"). In that video people seemed to understand what was going on.

I'm sure the aesthetics will get better. Like the guy said at the end, that unit was the first and will be the worst. It can only be forward from there. I do feel a bit concerned that it's yet another technology that takes people away from the real world, but I guess to them that will be their real world.
The concept is great I agree, looks a bit like a VR headset, it's essentially augmented reality.
If they can make a unit that resembles something more like a pair of sunglasses, I'm all in.
The best thing about it is not having to hold your phone in your hand, but at the same time as you say, it's just another thing taking you away from the real world and we all spend way too much time on our devices these days.
So many people adults included on their phones looking at Facebook around the dinner table.
Now there will be no way to tell lol.
