This is the bee's knees! It would save me several hours per month, for the small price of looking like a freak (Japanese can pull it off better...)

To use the glasses, the wearer first wanders around a house or workplace for an hour or so, looking at the objects he or she may later want to find in a hurry.

Each time the camera focuses on a object - such as a set of keys, a mobile phone or a purse - the wearer says the name aloud. The name is then recorded and stored into the memory.

...In a demonstration at the university last week, the team were able to programme in the names and identity of 60 everyday objects, including a compact disc, a hammer, a potted begonia and a mobile phone.

Then whenever you lose something, you just tell it. It connects what you call it with the image it captured previously, then recalls where it was seen/filmed last, and the glasses present you an image of where it last was.

Of course this won't be of any use if somebody else moved the item!
