    My dreamed device has began to take shape…Soon all huge plasma LCD will be outdated. All future visual info from cellphone display, car dashboard/rear mirror, news,…even camera/video settings and real time effect etc….will be transmitted via personal shortwave communication signal to eyewear devices.
