'Smart Goggles' Remember (So You Don't Have To)

Yasuo Kuniyoshi, Tatsuya Harada and other scientists at Tokyo University School of Information Science and Technology have come up augmented memory you wear on your face. Called "Smart Goggles," the system video records everything, and AI software tries to "recognize" objects using software the inventors claim is the world's most sophisticated. Later, you tell the glasses via voice command what you're looking for -- say, the TV remote -- and it shows you a VIDEO PLAYBACK of the last time it saw the object.

Cybernetic systems like these goggles will raise interesting legal issues. The goggles can record audio. But in states like Pennsylvania and Michigan, it is often illegal to record voice conversations without the prior consent of all parties.
