In my fantasyland you would pair them with another device, like a phone, and it would do all the work. The glasses would basically be nothing more than a receiver and a display

    Yes, well that's a fantasy when it comes to AR. It's augmented reality, it needs to see the reality to augment it, else it's just a static screen in front of your face. It isn't anything new or interesting if you don't have the camera in the front.
