Monitor Glasses


I have bought an 'Utilite Pro' which comes loaded with Ubuntu 12.04.

Has anyone had any experience with monitor glasses. Either blue tooth or wifi or HDMI. I want something that is powered by a small battery pack you can carry in your shirt pocket. I would like to do away with the need for a regular monitor.

I would appreciate some feedback, good, bad, or indifferent.

Sorry I have not but I used a small screen on a hats logo with Erector sets, duck tape and upholstery thread to hold a mirror off the brim for my Raspberry Pi... Could try searching tv glass with input?

Thanks for the feedback.
I had spent about 3 hours googling. Not finding anything useful. Your suggestion to use 'tv glass with input' produced enough to keep me busy for 3 days. Never considered the word 'tv' in my chain of thought.

Thanks.
Dave

I'm really looking for a substitute for a monitor. Something I can carry in my other shirt pocket. Watch movies, surf, FB and all I would need is a wall outlet or a power outlet in a car.

Wonder if this HDMI dongle would work with these glasses?
