Default Robocop Glasses Realized
http://www.aolnews.com/2011/04/13/br...-of-world-cup/

"Imagine if police could stand back from a raucous crowd and scan the pack for criminals, without ever having to question a suspect or put their troops in harm's way.

That's exactly what Brazilian police are hoping to do with new eyeglasses equipped with stealthy crime-fighting properties. Dubbed "RoboCop" glasses after the 1987 action film, the glasses are fitted with a tiny camera that scans up to 400 faces per second. It cross-checks those images against a database of criminals and terrorists, and flashes a small red light inside the glasses if a match comes up. Then the officer knows whom to home in on and whom to leave alone"

Think i mightve posted this one already but the glasses in that article are over hyped. However with the advances of software like predator and displays like samsungs transparent amoled we will have glasses with displays paper thin very soon, probably within 3 years. Possibly even sooner.

Interesting concept, I can see this being a reality. What a distraction for drivers though.

I love articles that are written by people that have no business talking about, looking at or even using modern technology.
