    Need this to have a pair of glasses as an acessory which displays the overlay over your entire visual feild, maybe make it translucent adjustable for less distraction, or a quick OFF voice command.

    That looks REALLY busy and is bound to cause an accident. Why not keep GPS navigation simple and less of a distraction?

    very nice, but a head-up display, or HUD, is a transparent display in cars that presents data without! requiring the user to look away from his or her usual viewpoint

    Well, this sucks, i mean, wikitude is a great up, but this one is really nonsense for me, you just have an arrow on the screen and the camera in background, where is the “augmented” part? I mean, there is no interaction at all between overlay and image from the camera, it should undestand where the street is and, dont know, write something on the ground in 3d or color the right path, i dont see this useful at all.
