> AR on the other hand, either as a small projector or special glasses — that is exciting.

Is it? All I have ever seen is floating stuff lagging behind or jumping around. A "proof of concept" level experience, at best.

I look forward to a HUD mapping overlay and other info widgets that would enhance my travel.

It could provide real time info without needing to look at a watch or phone, without distraction. I hope the slab of glass phase ends soon. Too many people looking at their hands and ignoring reality.

Reminds me of Horizon Zero Dawn's Focus gadget.

But I think that technology is still way far off.

My car projects stuff onto the windshield. Is that a type of AR?

Yes and I think this is the most useful kind. This tech is going to get much better this decade.
