What I want is a HUD for my phone that will display the name of the song that is currently playing. I always have it on random and find myself constantly digging in my pocket to find who it is.

What I want is something that does that, along with displaying my text messages. I would be fine even with a barebones monochrome text display, 4 lines by 32 characters or so.cybereality wrote:What I want is a HUD for my phone that will display the name of the song that is currently playing.

Yeah, that would be cool. Especially if there was speech-to-text involved, so you could respond as well.PalmerTech wrote: What I want is something that does that, along with displaying my text messages. I would be fine even with a barebones monochrome text display, 4 lines by 32 characters or so.

Re: A New HUD for Smartphones
I have been pondering that, and there are a few solutions, but considering that there are tons of apps for Android phones to do that (In fact, most phones have the capability built in), seems like it would really be trivial.
A bluetooth headset with a simple, very lightweight boom with a small text display on it that could sync to your phone would be awesome.
