Hardware maker Kopin has developed a new generation of its wearable computer.

The Golden-i Gen 2 will be starting field trials in December and production will begin next year. The computer, which you wear like a headset comes with Bluetooth, a 15-inch virtual PC display, head-gesture recognition and voice-control. It will run run Windows Embedded CE 6.0 and is capable of streaming 30fps 720 x 480 video over Bluetooth 2.0.

The idea is that it will give you some form of video entertainment and work alongside your smartphone. It can also connect using WiFi for up to SVGA resolution video. It is all powered by an ARM Cortex A8 processor. Perhaps the best thing about it is that it can take commands using head and body tracking devices. It also recognises speech commands.

However you look even more of an idiot wearing it than you do when you wear those white headphones on your iPod. It will also probably cost an arm and a leg too.
