This is way overkill.  Properly constructed with the right lenses a 
device millimeters from your eye can provide you with exactly the same 
images.  It is a trivial task to sense eye movement and redisplay the 
images as if you were searching the sky for your content.  Also when 
you're lying face down and that sweet honey is giving you a massage of 
your life, you can still keep looking with out a mirror.
