Here’s what it’s like to look through them…

That’s a great innovation and an appealing design as well. Will this be available to the general public? Just a thought: it’s interesting how technology can appear to race ahead of, well, ethics. I think this is a great design but this appears to be a less extreme version of airport radiograph screenings. I doubt everyone’s going to want someone else sizing up their blood perfusion. If they wanted that level of invasiveness they could make an appointment with their doctor.
People also jump to conclusions. Just like the media reports that you can now tell if someone’s lying by their body language. Can you imagine some jury being influenced by that inexact science? I imagine people will make claims about others’ moods or health with these glasses too. A problem if people don’t realize blood perfusion can change from all sorts of conditions, like after exercise or at altitude.
Two of the three eyewear are primarily for health applications (the two “Iso” ones). The Oxy-Amp is useful in a wider variety of settings, and relies on one’s natural ability to “mind read” — it just provides the brain a cleaner signal. (And they are for sale now, at http://o2amp.com )
