With further research,
the wearable, tetherless, computer-mediated reality apparatus
(WearCam) will hopefully be of assistance to the visually handicapped,
as well as those suffering from visual amnesia.
These two applications were presented in the form of a
personal visual assistant (spatial visual filter) and a
visual memory prosthetic (temporal visual filter).
The former reconfigures vision through a completely mediated reality,
while the latter reconfigures vision through a partially mediated reality.
