Disney’s patent for augmented reality glasses could mean theme parks and ESPN games are about to get a lot more interactive. Disney-sanctioned ESPN Wide World of Sports and Monday Night Football have clear use-cases for the glasses, which could overlay details about the players and the game onto the real world. But Disney could also get creative and offer the glasses at theme parks, providing context to story-based rides (like Peter Pan’s Flight) or acting as language aids for non-native attendees. (WDWNT)
