Frankly, I don't want anything my Iphone can do way better. Orcam? Far, far too expensive when All I have to do is pay a small small fee at most, and get free at least. I don't have experience with anything too intense, so I don't know what to say about obsticle detection and the like. But I HAVE used the Esight glasses. I have perriferal vision in one eye, and those glasses shine the image into your eye like a projector. That didn't work for me at all. Honestly, here's what I'd love. Give me a single lens (or a double one since probably most people would prefer that. Put a camera on the outside of the lens itself, and have the image it sees on an actual display on a small screen on the inside of the glasses. Allow me to zoom in and out and change contrast and the like with controls on the frame, rather than a big device I have to lug around. I guess basically I want an HD image I can put up to my near-sighted eye and not have to hold it there. Right now I could attach my Iphone to my face, and see through it by holding it up to my face. I want that functionality, but hands free and much smaller. And yes, I know that would be a safety concern, so it would be nice to be able to lift it a little to see regularly if necessary. I hope in all there's sense in my rambling.
