Shimadzu has developed DataGlass, a small monocular lens head mounted
display for a wearable PC. The product is designed to give the user access
to information and reference anytime anywhere by carrying a PC anywhere
anytime. The DataGlass lets the user check his PC anytime. Both dust- and
water-proof, the DataGlass can be taken outside and can withstand rain
coming in from all directions and even under harsh conditions such as a
dusty construction site. The lens is available for either left or right eye
wear and can be worn with regular glasses. When connected to a PC via analog
RGB in the SVGA mode, the DataGlass allows the user to see a 10-inch-wide
monitor screen 60cm in front of him. In the VGA mode, the monitor is around
8 inches wide. The DataGlass weighs only 120grams and is powered via the USB
port, so it can be used in various situations.

No word on price.  I wonder how many units would need to be sold to get the
price down to the USD500 range.
