Although head-mounted displays have come a long way recently, even the sleekest models can still make you look pretty geeky. Well Japanese manufacturer Coccolo’s eyeglasses-mounted QVGA Vcam CVC-4 probably won’t win you any beauty contests either, but with a semi-unobtrusive profile (except for the thick dangling cable) and an expected price of $250, it could turn out to be a great deal. Unlike previous attempts that we’ve seen, the CVC-4 doesn’t make you look like that dude from Star Trek TNG, although we won’t get to see one up close anytime soon, as the scheduled April 2006 release is for Japan only. For a total geek-out, we’re gonna try to use one of these in conjunction with the DoubleVision Pro head-mounted surveillance cam, so we can enjoy instant replays of staring at a computer monitor 15 hours a day.
