What an overt pos

I am pretty sure that's a mockup (likely AI generated).

But nevertheless, isn't this true of all AR glasses?

Nah Zack Freedman's HUD does not look like a POS, it looks like a utilitarian compromise between form and function.

If that mockup is anywhere near what the product looks like, it looks like it has a ton of useless plastic.

I am not familiar with Zack Freedman's work, but a quick review of via image search honestly does not inspire confidence.

That being said, my tastes are limited to device design where you can't tell the difference from a normal pair of medical glasses.

That's fair. I prefer having the electronics to one side vs the monobrow style in the render.

They get in the way of eyebrows.

Add a bit more plastic and it'll do for safety goggles. Right now it looks more "minion-y"
