    Haha thats dope!!

    I know it's only a prototype or some sort of test model, but I probably wouldn't wanna wear that hahaha. That is so cool though. I like the person indentification function, haha, thats pretty sweet.

    wow thats neat

    wonder how long until something like that goes into mass production...

    hopefully they dont run out of funding..

    also - how would the person identification function even work?

    With a sleek redesign, this thing could seriously be the next big thing. It's an awesome idea and if just a few people from MIT could make it that good, I can't imagine how good it would be if a big company like Apple got behind it and made it cheap and accessible for everyone to use/develop for.

    I'm assuming it would search the persons name and bring up any information that they have posted online. It's tough to say how accurate it would be and you'd need a fast and powerful data plan for it to work properly.

    Not sure I need technology to make logical choices for me, but everything else is cool.

    WOW I'm just stunned I can't believe we've gone that far, I'm so anxious to get that on my hands. Stylish or not I would rock that alllll day.
    Possibilities for that 6th sense is just literally endless...

    Also Jeremiah I doubt they're being funded or at least receive a "significant amount of funding" cause like they said it cost them only $350 just to build it, and seeing how that 1 guy was the brains behind it, this showcase will most likely suck in the big bucks.
