    I can only see this being a concept that looks amazing on a rendered video but never fully materialises in real life.

    My god there are so many potential applications in the real world for this. Imagine having maps in front of your eyes when driving or walking.

    I'm waiting on the cornea implant version, but this looks very very cool.

    Looks pretty good

    Glad I waited half an hour for it to buffer so I could get it in 1080p. FU internet!

    "Hold on a sec" he says... how rude?! Like please wait while I check in at this burger van whilst staring at the floor!

    Also, "where's the music section?", why not just ask the shop assistant. I get that they are demonstrating what it could do, but come on: it's a small book shop!

    Other than that it looks pretty cool.
