I use the nReal for this currently, it's great. The glasses are comfy, and I can have blockers on the front or see through to other things. You can be full wearable right now for less than you think.

#73I don’t really understand why my iPhone can’t just be a desktop. It should just hook up to a dock and turn into a desktop pc. It’s got the power to do everything I do I just need a monitor and keyboard hookup
No thanks! My phone has 12GB; I'm going to be using that for general computing and RDP into my Macbook when I need to.

#75This is exactly the kind of concept I personally expect from Apple if the AR rumors materialize at the upcoming WWDC... maybe with a less clunky design. Now that I think about it, the existing Mission Control/Full screen App interface could make total sense for this UI. You could quite easily translate theses concepts to an AR deck bridging the gap between all existing Apps and this new interface.

#76Some people are massively thinking this is gonna be the next step. It's an interesting take.

#77Is anyone aware of any studies done on the long term effects of beaming photons to your retina from that close distance?
Focusing on a short distance for a long period of time has been associated with myopia (though I'm not sure if they've established a causal link).
I didn't really answer your question. Sorry. No I'm not aware.

Because Apple wants you to buy a Mac as well as an iPhone, as well as an iPad. On Android things are a bit better with Samsung's DEX, among others.
Android should be able to do the same basically becoming a chrome book when hooked up to a dock. Slap it into a 11” screen and you get tablet.
