Biology teacher here: The wrist band is measuring the change in electrical current running through your muscles/moto neurons, as the name says Electromyographie. Not your tendons, They don't carry any charge. Otherwise: solid video! :D

[@marioalday5966]

Not to count EMG captures the data by inserting a couple of fine copper needles about 6mm deep into your muscles (that means the needles need to traverse all skin layers to reach the muscle). Ouch! And to get a reasonable map you need to use at least data from 12 points from each limb. It is a modern torture technique called EMG.

Any time you need to take your eyes off the road to look at your GPS or dash is a significant increase in risk. Imagine seeing an arrow hovering over the exact spot you are supposed to turn, or having a line overlaid on the road that shows exactly where you should go. Cars could start transmitting ECU data over Bluetooth for these kinds of devices so you could see things like speed, fuel/charge, and alerts etc so you would never need to take your eyes off the road.

If the first version that actually gets released can do the things that phones do, then there's no need to carry a smartphone. I could imagine them integrating Android emulation, so you can run any Android app right out of the box. If they did that, what would be the point of carrying a smartphone?

Digitize the notes you take on a notebook, as the glasses can directly take a picture. 4. You generate some art using AI, you can see what it looks like on your wall 5.
