Google Glass look out! Sony is letting wearable devices go to your head! This is not a joke. :eek:

Wearable computing device, comprising a wig that is adapted to cover at least a part of a head of a user, at least one sensor for providing input data, a processing unit that is coupled to the at least one sensor for processing said input data, and a communication interface that is coupled to the processing unit for communicating with a second computing device. The at least one sensor, the processing unit and the communication interface are arranged in the wig and at least partly covered by the wig in order to be visually hidden during use.
 
Do they already have a workable device? If not, they should not be able to get a patent for such a broad "idea".

Patents needs to be very very specific. If they are not, they should be thrown out AND the person/company applying for such stupid patents should be banned from filing for any more patents for at least 6 months.

Hah.. crap like that should bring automatic bans for life to the people/companies that try to patent that kind of thing.

Patents should also not be able to be received for obvious things such as what you suggested.
