I would like to have a HUD in real life. Shows me a path to where I am going on the ground. Pops up reviews on items I am looking at in the store.

Show me people's names and pronouns, any private tags I've pinned them with, reminders about them, etc. Maybe my (self hosted, FOSS) AI assistant has some updates for me from their socials.

If a VR headset could be comfortable and unobtrusive and basically be an outboard engine for social cues, I'd be thrilled.

That is horrible! I want something unobtrusive. And no ads. First ad I see that HUD device goes right in the trash.

Names above people I met so I don’t keep forgetting it. Maybe a short summary of earlier interactions.
