Market sizeGoogle’s Glass Project exposed a huge market interest for this kind of products
A market research we made among 1,000 US citizens showed that one out of four was interested
In May 2013 Credit Suisse released a report forecasting a $30B / $50B market for wearable technology in the next two / three years. Sport should prevail in unit terms, and health/medical device in value.
Business Insider May 2013 research: “…Google Glass will reach 21 Million Annual Unit Sales by Year-End 2018”

The purpose of the patent for the optical system is to display information, icons, picture directly on the lens with a transparent background, in other words through the same lens you can see the reality around you and the digital information received from external source in overlay mode.
In practice, the purpose of our patent is to allow the user to see the messages near the center of the visual field: while I'm talking with you, the message will not cover your face, but it will appear to me on your shoulder.
In comparison, other solutions will show the same message on your shoes or on the ceiling, because their technology is not transparent they need to push it aside otherwise it will cover your view. Looking frequently at the ceiling or at the floor is very tedious, people who have tried those solution often take them off after a minute.
