I can also see musicians in an orchestra knowing where they “will be” as glass cues upcoming sheet music within their field of view.

Also as a universal telepromter — giving more confidence to speakers to engage with their audiences and not falter in a talk.
Or pulling up a list of synonyms by recognizing a word uttered, when the speaker is trying to emphasize a point.

Truly augmenting a speaker’s intelligence and personality in one go.

I want Glass to follow the tempo and glow of the notes on printed music as I learn the cello. Then I know the expectation of the piece and a new standard will emerge — nuance and variation. So not only will it show where I am, but where I should be. That makes practice much more efficient and music faster to acquire.

While of course cell-phones can do this today, Glass gets us one step closer to intuitiveness and timely communication because of the way it’s worn (akin to a pair of spectacles).

On another thought, people in an unfamiliar environment can don a pair and as they walk around an apartment, glass “recognizes” unique visual features around the room and pops up relevant info in context.

(older people unfamiliar with features of high tech equipment for instance)
This of course can work for different scenarios (operational / emergency procedures for personnel in a factory etc..)
