Laster Technologies, a French company, has developed a new set of glasses that allows users to view data in a heads up display type of configuration. These glasses appear to be just as normal as most correctional lenses, with the exception of a projection system. A projector is attached to the glasses on either side, just in front of where the glasses touch the ear of the user.

Not only do these glasses display information, but they also read the displayed data through cameras and send it back to the host computer. These glasses give the user the ability to display any information the user needs, less than an inch away. This technology could prove useful for situations ranging from reading a book, to viewing schematics or instructions when working on a project.
