The Nakajima Laboratory at the University of Electro-Communications in Japan has developed a prototype pair of GPS-enabled glasses that use LED lights built into the frame to keep you moving in the right direction.

The glasses house a microcomputer used to input your final destination, which works in tandem with a sensor to facilitate directional functions. A specific light pattern illuminates the LEDs if you're heading the right way.
