====== Smart Glasses & VR Headsets ======

Any sort of device that involves AR or VR, such as smart glasses and virtual reality headsets.

Smart Glasses: Wearable glasses with screens with functionality similar to smartphones. Relevant for a short period in the early 2010s, then they died out. Of the ones that existed, most all appear to be Android or Linux based ARM systems.

>It is currently able to boot Mainline (very very minimal)

Boots with display output, but the display is outside of the viewing field on the headset, so progress is currently stalled. There is work being done to put the mainline kernel on the Go.
