I think this tech is what the space dept. and air force use in their helicopters and jets with missiles.

What I thought would be neat and others mentioned with this headset, would be to see that "Halo around planet earth" The halo from the game Microsoft Halo or even a planet that sits close to the horizon in Ar. It sure would give a sense of scale to real life sight and size. I'm not sure how if could get by real clouds and sunlight though, maybe it would be a real-time encoded laps overlay reimagined 360 trans encoding.

I would definitely pick one up to see that first hand....

I just remembered... Maybe it could do the Earth Lotto Atmosphere android countdown too with a happy birthday clown visit... countdown 1 million, zillion twenty five hundred billion thousand, million zillion 32 dollars..... ect... Its very real computer high powers. :lol:
