Hopefully we’ll see AR become more common place and easily integrated with glasses. Imagine being at a gathering and you can look at someone and get their name, maybe their LinkedIn or other profile. Directions overlaid right in front of you for navigation. Going to a sports game and seeing player stats above the player. Things like that.

Sounds like a privacy nightmare honestly. Also a kind of black mirror like social point system.

Navigation is the only one that sounds neat, but also a bit brain rotting. I already don't know where I am half the time because of navigation.

I'd like more basic things, like a floating music player, sticky notes/todo list, notifications bar or video/text, when looking at a restaurant seeing the reviews and menu with order options, looking at a product and getting more info. Just stuff that I'd need to manually look up otherwise or things that would be infinitely better without being hunched over a handheld device.

I really want historic photos overlaid on top of existing buildings. I'd love to walk down Chicago and see in real time what it looked like 100 years ago.

How about Ikea instructions? You look at a pile of screws and a red circle appears around the one you need next.
