Despite kleinbl00's compelling arguments. I believe the potential is huge for industrial applications (or at least the perceived potential, which is all I'm really interested in). Amazon's warehouse is essentially organized chaos. I could see how QT codes in combination with something like Vuzix Corp's glasses could help employees identify product more efficiently. Or on loading docks at ports. Military uses, for drone cams. Floor traders at the stock market. Sports, wind direction for golf, motion tracking for hockey. Etc. It's not for every day use though, not for your average consumer, and I don't believe the software available has caught up yet, but it will.

I think investors are going to jump on board AR much like they did TSLA at a certain point though. The technology just needs to reach a tipping point of plausibility.

Actually, that pretty much is my argument. Minus the "but it will" part. I remain ambivalent. Regardless, it's not something you're going to feel okay wearing about, I don't think.
