    That’s not really AR then is it, AR requires the overlay on reality, I guess it could be like a game OSD but a lot of that detail is probably more annoying than anything. A live map might be good sometimes, but do I need my heart rate showing all the time in regular day to day life? is it helpful to have a shopping list taking up space in my vision all the time? How do I interact with it if it can’t see my hands, do I then have to talk to it constantly to manipulate it? Can other people manipulate my OSD while I’m using it by saying the right thing? Seems pretty gimmicky …

      No, not what I meant. I meant environment tracking, hand tracking, everything.

      WE don’t need access to the camera for AR to work, the device just needs to be able to process the video stream.

        The problem isnt your privacy, it’s everyone else’s. If there are glasses with cameras then some arsehole is running around photographing people without their permission. You might argue that if you’re out in public then you can be photographed but that’s a shit attitude, if someone is walking around photographing people they should at least have to make it obvious so people can have a say at the time or at least know about it before it turns out they are now an AI deepfake pornstar.

            Legal doesn’t mean right. There are a whole host of situations where you shouldn’t be filming and if someone is filming you want them to be obvious about it. Schools, playgrounds, change rooms etc.

                I think there’s an expectation that you can identify when someone is filming in playground. I’d be very fucking curious as to what someone thought they were doing if they were walking around filming my kids in a playground. If they are wearing AR glasses then there a reasonable assumption they are filming constantly and sending that data to whoever made the glasses.
