A mixture of an Optical Character Recognition / Text-to-speech software (the source material is identified by eye-tracking lasers). The audio-output from the Text to speech system is sent to earphones attached to the glasses' ear-hooks.

its a shame that you actually have to *look* at the text i.e. you could be doing the housework or office work and yet, the glasses hold up the text and read to you rather like a radio... |

+ I like [po]'s and [theleopard]'s annos. Both great suggestions to a cool idea!
OK, I like [skinflaps] funny, too. |

[po] The laser eye tracking was an afterthought, but the idea was to prevent the same text from being read-out every time it happens to be on screen / in view (e.g. "halfbakery" at the top left of all pages here) - Sure sometimes you want to check what site you're on, but it shouldn't be repeated all the time.
That said. I like the specialist-radio idea - I guess we'll make the eye-tracking turn-off-and-on-able... probably by some gesture, like blinking both eyes in a certain sequence |
