I'm really happy to see this turning out the same way as Glass. It's rare we get serious wins over big tech. It's tough to think of something else that's been

  I wish there was a way to do it without all the problems of having cameras on people's faces. The tech of AR glasses would be pretty neat to get working given I was raised on Sci-fi with visual overlays on people's vision being a pretty common piece of tech. You'd have to trust they couldn't get jailbroken to add recording though even if a company with enough trust made a set with cameras only able to be used by the inside out tracking system.

    I wish there was a way to do it without all the problems of having cameras on people's faces. Just make it obvious that they're not ordinary glasses, but recording devices. Not just a tiny LED that can be covered, but something like the camera is on an arm that swings out in front of the wearer so there's no mistaking that a recording is in progress. The fact that they're designed for stealth shows the nefarious intent.

      For AR glasses the current best option for tracking is inside out tracking so the camera would basically always be deployed. I don't think we have to go so far as assigning nefarious intent here, there are a lot of reasons they're designed as they are. For example your proposed solution is bulky, expensive and prone to damage, so there's plenty of non-nefarious reasons they don't have it operate that way.
