Recommend display glasses for computing while walking


Is there anything out there at all? I want something like no-strength glasses with high-definition display, monochrome is acceptable. Preferably see through, so I can walk, but also read the text. They don't need to have bulky cameras or other sensors. I just want some glasses to display the terminal from the raspberry pi in my backpack, so I can walk around and program or write with a chorded keyboard.

Vuzix Blade (2021 version), maybe. I don’t have an AR headset but it is advertised as being usable while walking and exercising. See: http://files.vuzix.com/Content/pdfs/Vuzix-Blade-Upgraded-Sma...

It runs Android OS and can be controlled from Windows/MacOS via a Vuzix Android app.

I would rather use a Steam Deck for the connection rather than a Raspberry Pi.

Also, see this very old post that’s relevant as it mentions Vuzix as a solution with hardware that is now 10+ years old but was used for walking : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1554493

So you want something like a magic leap that actually works?
