Check out my new glasses.

Except they aren't my new glasses. :) Click the image on the right for a bigger version. This shot was taken with Glasses Direct Virtual Mirror software, available here.

It's technically very impressive, it tracked my face pretty well considering I just used a built in laptop web-cam, and I wasn't particular accurate when calibrating it.

But with my experience of working on e-commerce software and building e-commerce websites what impresses me is that it's the start for solving a very big problem with selling stuff online: some goods just have to be tried on before you buy them.

Now I just need a website that will let me scan my awkwardly shaped feet so I can buy shoes online that fit me.
