As anyone who has tried it knows, stacking pistons on top of each other in order to combine their effects is really, really complicated.

Lady Gaga and Polaroid's upcoming Grey Label Camera Glasses can record video and snap pictures, but who really wants to show the world what they're up too on those mini LCD screens?
