About 4 years ago I was at a VC pitch day and one of the teams rehearsing their pitch before hand was basically proposing this for augmented reality. I was mildly horrified that people saw that sort of thing as something people would want, but hey - $$$ is all that matters right? I really hope those folks never got funded.
Why do you think Meta bought VR tech and took it further? To pour ads directly into our brains. It's just that scuba sized VR tech it didn't catch on, so instead they invested in Luxottica now to make AR fashion items with the same purpose.
