Kind of worthless video. Just speculates about how it works. They don't ever even show the app working!

These glasses aren't even AR so the idea that they can overlay details as shown in the mockups is impossible.

They are AR, it is the Orion prototype.

Ah I see, though they don't seem to be for sale so I don't think this guy actually has access to them.

Yea he definitely doesn't, they are prototypes and cost $10k to make and are only available as a private demo.

It's not really an app. It's a full on computer watching with a live feed of the glass stream, just a proof of concept

I doubt they bothered with the ui element of it, as in overlaying info on the glasses

Right... I mean the idea is obvious so why even bother with any of it? The only interesting reason is to demo that it actually works in reality which clearly they didn't.

Obvious to us I guess but not the general population clearly
