assuming somekind of google glass attached to a giant world wide data storage. Could it be compressed? (which got me to thinking about compression and the larger the size of the data stored the more likely the chance of larger and larger streams being duplicate. How many parts of the image do I have to store of my desk. Also, could we limit it to interesting moments(how many times do I have to record me eating cheerios in the morning.)

Whenever you have many recordings, the thing to do is building a 3D model of the world from it and then keep the camera movements for each camera, if you still want them.

I guess this or something similar to it will soon happen at large sports venues, say at the Super Bowl. It will start with the field, but if technology ges better and cheaper, they could include the audience, too.

Imagine buying an improved version of your memory: a fully immersive recording of your view of the game, with some improvements. For example, that guy that jumped up, obscuring your view of the winning touchdown? In the recording, he happens to sit a few inches to the left. View that a few times and wait a few decades, and you won't even remember that you didn't see that famous moment in sport.

And yes, that can be used for other purposes, too. Imagine that I appear in thousands of photos at some time and place while in reality, I was robbing a bank at the other end of the world.

Presumably you could also use lossy compression across users, especially for the boring parts. I imagine that, within the confines of my bowl, my milk and cheerios look pretty similar to yours. Do the actual differences matter, as a record of some particular breakfast experience? I suppose only if they float into some surprising configuration.
