I've always wanted a search in my glasses while I drive. Look at that building, it's cool, what is it? What's the name of that lake? How far away is that mountain from me? What kind of tree is that? How old is that collapsing building? Etc.
But I don't want to be a pervert. I've made it nearly 50 years successfully avoiding that.
If only we could create some kind of machine that could be pointed at something to describe it. That way it wouldn't be attached to your face all the time
