My techie cousin is working on a Google Glass set-up for my Shoei Helmet. He is reworking the display to project on a slightly mirrored face shield and intertwining the camera with my existing speakers and mic. When finished we hope to call-up video, internet, and even play video through a blue-tooth source! No more mindless droning down the slab when the scenery gets boring. I should be able to chat and message friends at speed and even catch a movie or show while at speed. I'm looking forward to watching Oblivion while riding I-80 across Nebraska. He is just tweaking the sound muffling now so the voice commands get through without shouting. I don't know what we'll have in it when done but I'll let you know.   

Since you posted and opened the subject for comment, in my not so humble opinion, there is enough distracted driving going on without adding to it. Take the car.

Scary thought...  I agree with you, Gary.   Keep it out of the car as well, at least for the driver.

 

Right....

Humor is usually has a touch of truth.

will this thing record your death for youtube when you slam into that car because you was chatting with friends.

That's crazy.     Just stay home to watch your movies before you kill yourself/someone.

April Fools?

One of the folks my wife works with is a Google Glass beta tester and he wears those things ALL the time at work. He's a jerk from what I hear and I told my wife to ask him if after all the practice he's had with the glasses if he's mastered them yet.

Has he become a master beta tester?   

I want to believe this is a joke but watching what people do in there cars while driving horrifies me that it's not!  I think I'll stay clear of I-80 across Nebraska!

  Really? I mean.. really?

Oh well, this was the best April Fools joke I could come up with. Last year's was much better as I was installing a 12v - 11" TV and a DVR on a shelf behind my windshield. I had one mod so bent out of shape (former LEO?) that I thought he was going to turn me in. I've had the solid rubber tires (never a flat!), the CNG conversion, and the hydraulic lifter kit (never adjust a valve again). I'm starting to run out of ideas. Keep that rubber side down! 

 

The problem is the O.P. intended this as a joke now, but rest assured it will come in the future.  Someday it may become required.  Recent news item:  Rear-vision cameras to be mandatory soon for all cars, for your safety. Soon you will be required to carry a GPS-enabled cell phone for your safety, so they can find you in the event you are in danger.  Soon cars will be required to have car-to-car intercommunications so they can talk to each other for your safety.

  Good one, Cybercraig!

Gotta admit, you had me wondering if some screws had shook loose in that head o' yers!

 

If nothing else... Good recovery from a fail! Lol.....
