I meant text translation obviously. You don’t need glasses for audio.
And yeah, smartwatches don’t have cameras. They aren’t doing anything that needs them. AR, by definition, requires it to know about its environment. It needs a camera at minimum. You could have just smart glasses that can display texts or something, but AR needs cameras.
Sure. I don’t want that though. Whatever benefit smart glasses could provide can also be provided by just a phone. If you want slightly faster access, a smart watch works too, with slightly less ability for input. Smart glasses, with no camera, can only display this same information, but it’s right in your face. Also, without cameras, the only input it could have is on the side of your head, which seems horrible.
AR has some utility I would like. Am I a fan of them putting cameras everywhere? No, so I probably wouldn’t buy a pair of AR glasses (and would discourage it of others too). Do I see the functionality? Sure, which I don’t see for smart glasses.

Smartglasses don’t need to be AR though, you could make one that is just a HUD that displays information
