Apple just got awarded a new patent that may become the wearable version of the iPad one day: eyeglasses that would display apps, video, images, and overlay information on the world around you in realtime. Like Google’s thingamajig, Apple’s eyeglasses would project all this information directly into the user’s eyes using LCD projectors.

Apple’s patent describes a method in which the image travels through a special glass to land directly into the user’s pupils. This, in theory, will provide with an illusion of total immersion.
