Didn't Google try this a decade ago with Google Glass, but recieved such a negative response over privacy concerns that it abandoned the project.
Am I remembering this wrong? Have people's views on privacy changed to the point where this is acceptable? Does Meta not have the features that Google did which prompted to backlash?
Google Glass was not AR. They were "smart glasses" with severely limited functionality for an extremely high price. That's mainly why they failed, not the privacy backlash. The majority of people don't care about privacy, just look at what information people put on the Internet.
