I actually tried one of their prototypes a couple of months ago and felt quite like a dork, but I guess they look cooler than those of main competitor Vuzix. Ori: That’s impressive. And how did you enable AR tracking? Zvi: By collaborating with AR specialists and Chinese partners we integrated a web camera and a compass (with 3DOF) into the prototype; and connected it to a phone with GPS. AR algorithms analyzed the video from the camera and overlaid graphics while tracking the real world. Several units of the prototype were even so [...]

Something like 45-90. And higher resolutions too.
They’re already getting there, in terms of size/weight… Though they’ll never be as thin as glasses, more like thick plastic sunglasses. =/
It’d also be nice if they had 2 camera, to give depth perception.
At least, that’s what I’d hope for, anyway.
Hopefully good ones will be made in a few years.
