What I'm hoping for is a Puppy-Shades deal that can be a HUD and even fully opaque screen (depending on situation). The arms could have neural sensors, so you could control it with your mind. It could also have built-in earphones (ala Oakly Thumps). In fact, if you added some mics (stereo), you could use it as hearing aids too, in adition to being able to function as a portable recording studio.
It would of course tie in to a wireless internet service (by then Antartica would even be getting service. Forget about deadzones in the rest of the world, though. Except at sea, maybe). Voip would come standard. Not just any voip either. Free voip. Not that I'd use it. I'm not a phone person. Other people would, though.
These things would have the whole set of everthing gauges. Odometer, spedometer, thermometer, altometer, geiger counter, radar, gps, barometer, decibalmeter (with sound-canceling technology to lessen the future need to use the hearing aid function), and even optional mood-color frames.
Actually, the frames could be variabley colored, so you could choose colors, set it to change with your music, or use the thermometer for the mood-sensing. Or it could analyse your brainwaves for the mood.
It would have light sensing built in due to the inclusion of stereo video recorders. That also means night vision, heat vision, magnification (both binocular style and microscope style), with the option of overlaying and even using a single lens and seeing normally through the other.
Oh, and it could function as sunglasses and perscription glasses (but it would be able to change the perscription just like transistion lenses change the darkness.)
Built-in flashlight and laserpointers (both with all colors of visible light, uv, and ir frequencies). For an added fee, a more powerful laser can be included. If purchessed from the right places, you might even be able to hook up with an industrial strength laser, but that wouldn't be officially supported exept for military or industrial applications. The lights and lasers can be targeted without moving your head, and can lock on, so that moving your head won't affect aim.
Finally, the speakers can also function as dog wistles, mouse repellers, and wall-crumblers (warning: remove from head before using wall-crumbler features).
That thing would be excellent for gaming, movies, and basically anything. Since it has stereo screens, it's 3d. A sports-goggle type deal would also be neccessary. It would be much more secure and durable. That would be good for sports (call for help in an avalanch with a mere thought) and police/firefighter/anything (silent communication, sensors up the wazzu, google access, etc).
They'd be powered by a small turbine engine or a mini fusion reactor, depending on what is available at the time. And they would have an optional bark on bootup. (Needs to be optional for stealth situations.)
Oh, I almost forgot: There would be an optional mouthpiece addon that has a three hour airsupply (solid oxygen
), water (non-crystalized solid, aka not ice), pez dispensor, mouthwash, and additional microphone.
A possible accessory could be a backpack with more fuel, pez, air, and water storage. Plus room for your books, board, and tent, with the ability to connect attachments such as a jet pack, parachute, flamethrower, or proton pack (for when you need a positron beam to take care of those pesky ghosts. BUT DON'T CROSS THE STREAMS!!!!).
