One feature I'd love to see in see-through VR sets is hyperspectral vision. Would be useful to see IR and UV around you.

In my experience working with multi/hyperspectral systems, usually for turning brown kids into various forms of air pollution, or at least that's all anyone seems to want to buy them for.

Also, as another user is probably allewding to, certain thin synthetic fabrics are semi-transparent to particular wavelengths in the IR band.

I avoid those jobs, though sometimes you find out that things weren't as benign as originally pitched.
