I disagree. I don't think AR is ready. Unless you want to type in what restaurant you're at so that your AR headset can give you that Yelp rating, I don't think we'll see what you're describing before VR hits the mainstream. You need to be capable of really fast + accurate computer vision to be able to passively get notifications regarding the world around you. The strides made to make VR possible will help AR in the long run.
