If you could create a gadget with the benefits of Google Glass—an eye-level display for quick, discreet access to messages, news, and updates—but without the literally in-your-face design, what would it look like?
For a group of researchers from Nokia and several universities, it would be a cylinder about the size of a tube of lipstick that you hold up to one eye only when you want to check your Twitter feed or Instagram. When you didn’t want to use it, you might wear it as a pendant or tuck it away in a pocket.
