Stop trying to make AR glasses happen.
Why? I'd use the shit out of them at work. I work on construction sites. It'd be awesome to have an app to superimpose the finished plans on top of what I'm seeing so I don't have to constantly refer back to the paper prints. No more measuring shit five times, just install it exactly as you see it.
That's a pretty cool idea, though I think it would be a challenge to align the plans perfectly with the actual construction site.
They already exist in much larger packaging.
Nobody uses that stuff, though.
Sure they do. Hololens is used by a large swath of major engineering firms, I've seen people use the Quests fairly extensively for AR, and Apple somehow still sold out their pretty awful AR product as well.
Of course they exist.
So they already "happened".
I think most people understand the difference between "existing" and "happening".
That was the whole point of the original comment.
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Seems you used that word. I'm just responding to your comments.
