It's so very many times more expensive than a smartphone right now... I'm pretty sure it'd have that built in. It videos what you see. Queue masses of dull YouTube footage... although there have been some good implementation ideas... like the online physics teacher who visited CERN and his class shared his live feed and could ask him questions. It projects an image onto a small transparent "screen" / prism/ overlay looking thing over one eye. People trying it are really wowed. You navigate with various swipes on the arm of the glasses. It's motion sensitive of course so apps like Google maps will follow your gaze.
