Even though google glasses isnt out yet and its limits are yet to be tested, i wanted to get all your ideas on what you wish it would be used for in regard to entertainment at home or outside. (besides the obvious ;)

It could really tie in to other systems (like a game console) and overlay information for different games. Like if you’re playing Battlefield 7 on the PS6, your mini-map can be in the glasses, as well as ammo count and other HUD info.

  I like how evga precision x will give me temperature and clock trending. A HUD in counterstrike would be awesome though

Real-time filters would be cool too. A high powered processor would be required obviously but seeing the world in an instagram-esk fashion would be cool.

But just seeing all the info available to you on google maps in front of your eyes when traveling would be amazing.

Especially if you could theme everything like your favorite video game HUD.

Cheating on test. The glasses do the word processing and then the answear appears.
Being the smartest guy in the world! with the help from google. “Google it” would be on all the time when a question is asked. Like having a conversation with your friends and someone ask “Do you know when the Bears play the Packers?” Your glasses would show you the Bears Scheduale and highlight the Bears vs Packers.

A smart dev could make crazy augmented reality games. Imagine playing a FPS in, say, downtown San Fransisco with 20 of your friends.

I saw a few ads a while back where they show an app with augmented reality used to show historic sites based on your gps location similar to how google sky works. i havent heard/seen any apps based on this. Has anyone heard any new development in this ?
