with a lot of hype promoting the product as the next big thing in augmented reality technology.
would users be comfortable wearing a reality headset around their faces every day?
problems experienced by some users are-
experienceing motion sickness , uncomfortab with prescription eyeglasses
headset bridge over the nose not comfortable.  redness in the eyes . neck pain.
high sticker price of $3500
in my opinion VR  reality headsets are for game arcades, theme park attractions.
like skydiving membership, VR headsets may need to be custom tailored for a perfect fit, given the high cost of equipment set-up & training.

Don't you think it would be cool to have your scope display right in front of your nose when your head is inside some cabinet as you try to fault find?

SiliconWizard:
Can I also have 4 YT videos playing in each corner of my viewfield? And maybe a small pane with a ChatGPT prompt.

Who care about motion sickness. It's all due to our inner ear anyway - let's just mandate the disabling of inner ear for all, and we'll be able to buy and enjoy AR glasses en masse. The sense of balance is useless in the XXIst century anyway.

BrianHG:
They are way too heavy and bulky.  Especially at their price point.  They should have had the bare minimum displays and cameras in the headset, while everything else should have been part of the battery pack.

Someone poste videos of people wearing this in the gym working out, and "driving" teslas.
I think the appropriate response would be if both the car and the headset self destructs in a huge explosion if someone tries this.
