Here is a remastered and re-uploaded video of Tom Hanks appearing at Sony’s 2009 CES Keynote with Sir Howard Stringer. Sony had the idea to show off new glasses that are currently under development in their labs – they have widescreen 16:9 (presumably HD) quality projected onto the lens. Stringer and Hanks try them on and hilarity ensues. If you watch while Hanks has them on you can see that for a moment after the jokes he is blown away by the glasses. It’s very obvious. Sony will probably have something like this in the market within the next five years, hopefully. They may want to continue working on the frame design, however..
