Google glass special Seg idea?

[Jstanfast]

I don't know if this is a good idea or not so I am hoping for some input from the genius's of optiboard.

We have a fellow with a pair of the google glasses come in and want a pair of script eyewear. He has the frame that goes with it and everything, but he wants a flat top. Would it be a good idea or a bad idea use a FT28 along with a golf seg up in the corner to give him a better view of the glass? Or is the distance script all he will need since it is designed as a virtual distance viewing.

I wonder if something like this www.smartgoldlenses.com would work.

At Expo West in Las Vegas last month Rochester Optical introduced a free form progressive that places a second OC with the appropriate power for Google Glass in the top right corner. They aren't priced to high and will become the go to lens as Google Glass begins to penetrate the consumer market. The early adopters are already using it.

... oh, and also, Luxottica has alredy partnerd with Google to produce Frames to go with Google Glass in their Rayban and Oakely lines. FYI

BTW, if we don't get a handle on this new emerging (I heard 30 billion dollar) market that Millenials are dominating someone else will. Just sayin' Our practice is going to go for it as we are already positioned in the high end full retail segment. I am going to first introduce it to the Univ. New Mexico students and faculty by setting up a display on campus. Then approach Intel

The prismatic effect will have to be addressed to be successful with Google Glass in any power over a 1-2 diopter lens

Neither, since the projected image of the screen isn't quite at a distance viewing distance.

Yes, yes they do. And they are available in a ST-28 in CR-39, Trivex, and 1.60.

Feel free to contact me for any additional information or go through the Smart Gold website.

I love the idea of this and Im glad that someone put some thought into building a lens that would work with a computer monitor strapped to your face.

I don't see what's wrong with the loop system - Million.....dollar......idea
