Ok but how would projecting a detailed control system onto your desk be any better than a normal HMD that shows where your hands are in a completely virtual environment?

You're misunderstanding, the glasses would project everything else, the controls are real.

The future of gaming is spending thousands of dollars on a custom built 1 to 1 cockpit and then yet more thousands of dollars on a headset that cannot possibly properly track where the outline of the controls end and the room begins to project a 3-dimensional space without clipping and breaking immersion.

It's still relying on your own environment and this is describing an extremely niche market.
