ZionEyez HD Camera Glasses
ZionEyez is a startup looking to produce reasonably priced glasses that double as an HD video recorder:
The ZionEyez team is as diverse as its products, a wide spectrum of individuals with technology backgrounds and a common goal. To create the most effortless video recording experience in existence. Before ZionEyez, our engineering team contributed to the development of the Flip Video camera. Now that Flip is obsolete; “Eyez™” evolved into the next generation of video recording devices.
Our mission is to revolutionize the way people share the most significant experiences in their life. We are idealists who know that people value memories most; Zioneyez provides a solution for capturing these moments without compromising convenience or style.

ZionEyez will offer a 720p HD camera; its 8 GB of flash memory allows the storage of up to three hours of video. The specifications include 802.11n WiFi, Bluetooth v3.0, and a micro USB port for charging and data transfer.
You can pre-order your ZionEyez glasses for just $149.00, a $50 savings over the regular price.
Science fiction fans recall fictional products like the True-Vu goggles from David Brin's 1990 novel Earth:
"Watching, all the time watching... goggle-eye geeks...What brought on Crat's sudden outburst was the sight of yet another babushka, glaring at them from a bench under one of the force-grown shade trees... The very moment they came into view, the old woman laid here wire-knitting aside and fixed them with the bug-eyed, opaque gape of her True-Vu lenses...
