Reply to comment by Picopede in Apple Delays AR Glasses, Plans Cheaper Mixed-Reality Headset by GadnukBreakerOfWrlds

There's only three features to AR and all three are missing from all current projects.

Reliable general object recognition so that data can be put onto normal things,

an open-protocol data ecosystem that would allow banal data about the world to be shared,

and most importantly, stylish, high quality, unobtrusive glasses reasonably indistinguishable from normal eyeglasses.

Tldr all the things that would make AR awesome are things we can't do.

Yeah, it needs to be something that people would wear even when they aren’t using it.

Really, it needs to be a status symbol
