Apple’s Patent Sketch For Its Own Retina-ised Version Of Google Glasses Is Awkward

Apple’s Patent Sketch For Its Own Retina-ised Version Of Google Glasses Is Awkward

Apple has long been working on a Google Glasses-like heads up display, and have been granted a couple of patents already. But Patently Apple has drudged up their latest one, which promises to bring Retina-quality visuals to the little screen. And intriguing as that may be, the more entertaining thing here is the sketch itself.

The look on the person’s face. That boxy attachment for the screen. THE HELMET! All of it adds up to something quite ridiculous. Granted, this isn’t a design patent, so whatever Apple is working on will look nothing like this. But for a company as obsessed with image as Apple is, one would have thought even their non-essential sketches would even look good. [USPTO via Patently Apple]
