I saw this on the news this morning. New glasses for people with sight problems. The graphics are a bit Vic20 but I'm sure they will improve as the tech gets better for them.

I wonder hwo far they can go with these? Will it end up looking like 3D virtual reality?

I just saw the guy who's developing these on BBC Breakfast, they've already got a set that'll cost around £200 to make that look like a cross between sunglasses and google glasses, so for those kind of figures it makes it affordable to a huge amount of people if not via the NHS.

Brilliant bit of tech'.
No doubt the integration with Google will be right behind.?
