I think before we tackle "smart glasses" from technical and social acceptance perspectives, we should explore "smart headphones". Perhaps it already exists, but while I'm walking around with my cordless Bose headphones I wonder why someone hasn't already made headphones that have dual-cameras in both ear pieces, gyroscopes, and accelerators built in. I think a lot of people would be interested in being able to take photos or motion stabilised videos from their perspective with the tap of a button. There have been times where I saw something interesting, took my phone out of my pocket to take a photo/video, but the moment had already passed. Walking around with camera enabled headphones would allow me to capture the moment instantly. I just need to look and shoot.
But maybe I should just enjoy the moment for what it is, and let it pass, without feeling the need to record it...
