#12Do these take photos and videos? What does it show in the glasses?
it's one of those animated scrolling webpages. Scroll down and you can see a simulated view thru the waveguides

#13From the website: 26.3 degree diagonal field of view (stereo). Display brightness up to 2,000 nits.
I worked on these but am not allowed to say anything other than citing public sources.

#14just realized the last part they snuck in there -- These aren't for sale, only for 'creators' looking to use them to develop 'Lenses' and AR stuff etc. hmph.
Fwiw at least this way if your idea gets approved you don't have to pay for the glasses -- much more fair to people entering SW development from impoverished backgrounds. To apply there's a form at the bottom of the page.

#15The demo on their page, is this meant to look like a tamagotchi-style entertainment distraction? Or are they expecting people to use these for real interactions? I can’t understand why a pond and butterfly make sense overlaid on a forest.
Here's a video with a better example of it. Doesn't look like a pond. Its more like alien flowers or something.

Can you say anything about potential applications? What do you think will be the killer app for this?

What would be any app for this? It's not immediately apparent why anyone would want this.

This page has several videos of potential applications:

#19I can tell you what I definitely would not be wearing or interacting with on the beach or in the forest: these for digital distractions and games.

#20I feel like this is one of those technologies that over the next decade will finally be accepted into the public domain as it gets more compact and real use cases present themselves. It's like the early days of DSLR to some degree.
