Surfing the news I came across this article. I can't C&P as I don't know how to get rid of the junk they put next to the articles. It is a long one.
Knowing what it takes to record all the information I think this is great news.

Libra, if you wanted to C&P the article you would have to highlight sections of the article at a time and then paste it into vendio. You just have to make sure you do not start to highlight the pictures that are next to the text.

Technology is getting up to speed in the medical community. I was in the cafeteria of Fresno Community Hospital and saw a Doctor with a pad ala Star Trek. I stared over his shoulder taking in the window style screen. It appeared touch screen driven, he had a stylus, and he had many icons for common tasks, like Rx for example. Knowing I was in his peripheral vision I said, "I'm sorry, just checking out your technology." He nodded and kept on discussing the X-ray he had on his screen with his associate. Wow. Being in the medical profession is akin to doing an 8 or 10 or 12 hour spacewalk when you work in a critical care area. It is that complicated.
I predict a heads-up display face shield or glasses for medical professionals within 10 years. Going into a patients room you would be able to access the patients vital stats without looking at any machine. You should be able to dictate to the patients chart just by saying your keyword and speaking. You can enable your choice of software to double check any orders or communicative faux pas. Should be done here, but it would be so much cheaper to out-source it to India and build it in China.
Life would be interesting if you could obtain heads-up real time analysis of, as an example, the poker hand you are holding. Surreptitiously displayed to your retina by a visual data interface. Everybody could be the perfect 21 player with the able assist of the right software.
