720p video-recording glasses

We first heard about the Eyez video recording glasses concept back in March, when those familiar black frames packed a 1080p camera, 16GB of flash memory, WiFi, and dual exawatt-class lasers (ok, we made that last part up). Named for the product's "utopic vision," ZionEyez now has a prototype with a more grounded spec list, including a 720p camera and 8GB of memory, along with micro-USB and Bluetooth connectivity for livecasting to Qik or LiveStream -- The Truman Show style. Afraid you won't be able to pull off those high-tint lenses at night or in that top-secret (indoor) business meeting? You can swap out the removable sunglass lenses for clear versions, or throw in your prescription in daylight (tinted) or indoor flavors, since many optical stores stock appropriately sized lenses. Availability for these $199 HD Ray-Ban clones is currently slated for fall (assuming ZionEyez hits its funding target), but you can pre-order your pair for $150 on Zion's Kickstarter page.[/p]

I see a whole lot of possibilities....

Awe-fucking-some.

Always wanted something like this.

Batteries get warm, no doubt you'd feel it where the battery is kept.
Neato concept, but the video looked like basic student work.

meh, I like it, but I wish there was a micro sd hc card slot.

that would be cool.

 

[LunaWofl]

The design of those... dear lord they're ugly...

These glasses would be shitty for movie recording, since I doubt anyone here could watch a 2 hour movie without moving your head.

These would be nice for sexy time though.

Good initiative to record public coitus.

 

[Fluto]

HD glasses, but the videos not..

 

[Shiro09]

So what do the lenses do?

The point would be to sneak them in to a sneak-preview screening. Shaky or not, releasing a pre-release movie would make you popular with the movie download crowd (and the FBI).

I've always thought this idea would great. Had no idea that someone was actually working on them though.
What I'm waiting for though is contact lenses. Not only with video recording but full augmented reality with an overlay on the real world showing all sorts of info. Just imagine sitting in the back of a boring assembly / meeting or w/e when you're actually playing pacman with your eyes.

can be used for something more than just goodness but like piracy, most of its use will be good

If they had glasses that would allow you to see things on one side of the lens without anyone else being able to see them, that would be amazing, but really bad for cheating on tests and stuff.
