Following the success of the Oculus headsets, tech companies are starting to develop the first consumer-market aimed augmented reality glasses, similar to those developed by Tony Stark in the Marvel series.

Wearers can listen to music and take pictures and videos with a pair of Ray-Ban Stories, which are shared automatically to your smartphone.

Wearers can either mirror their phone screen straight onto the glasses or use an operating system which enables the user to open and resize multiple windows at once, exactly like on a computer. Danny Marshall, head of device partnerships at EE, told Sky News:"[Nreal] are actually being very selective about the markets you can buy their products from, so that will make sure they can focus the supply... what we quite quickly need to do is understand the demand - that's more of a challenge than component availability."

"If you look broadly, most of the technology exists... augmented information displays are already available, it's more about the customer adoption. "Augmented reality is great for when you're in real life doing things - so I might have augmented reality on walking down the street because I can see cars and other people and at the same time get information just like I get off my phone today but in a much more effective way.
