What if your next computer isn't in your pocket—but on your face?

Seeing the Future is your definitive guide to the next revolution in personal technology: AI-powered smart glasses. In this sharp, compelling look at ambient computing, Elias R. Vale examines how artificial intelligence, spatial computing, and miniaturized hardware are converging to create intelligent eyewear that will transform how we live, work, and perceive reality.

From Meta's Ray-Ban collaboration and Apple's Vision Pro to China's emerging tech giants, this book breaks down:

  • The leading players and products in the smart glasses race
  • The powerful technologies driving them—AR displays, voice AI, sensors, and more
  • Real-world use cases that are already reshaping communication, productivity, fitness, and entertainment
  • The privacy, safety, and ethical challenges of "always-on" AI companions
  • What the future holds through 2030—and how to prepare for it
  • Whether you're a tech enthusiast, industry professional, or simply curious about what's next, Seeing the Future offers a visionary and accessible roadmap to the dawn of ambient computing.

    Look up. The next screen is your lens.
