obligatory Steve Mann reference: http://wearcam.org/myviews4.html

"WearCam has been an experiment in connectivity, starting early 1994, running on and off until September 15, 1996 (shut down when I went to ICIP 96 in Lousanne, due to poor net connection from there). After the conference, I decided that extensive revisions were in order: with further development of the pencigraphic image compositing algorithm that assembles the images transmitted from my wearable computer system to the base station on the roof of building 54. The hope is to have near-realtime performance using a 64-processor system."
