OSAKA: Security guards for dignitaries at the Osaka-Kansai Expo’s Japan Pavilion are going viral on social media for the state-of-the-art head-mounted displays (HMD) worn over one eye, looking like a headset in the popular anime and manga Dragon Ball.

The HMD shows visual and textual information sent from the pavilion’s disaster prevention centre. When on duty, security guards look at the display to check information such as who will arrive and when, in addition to the face photos of dignitaries they are to guard or anyone seeming suspicious.
