12. The case of claim 7 , further comprising:

an electronic display disposed on an exterior surface of the body portion, wherein the electronic display is configured to present the at least one video or photo.

13. The case of claim 1 , further comprising:

a wireless transceiver configured to establish a first wireless communications link with the head-mounted glasses and a second wireless communications link with an external network, wherein the case is configured as a hub for enabling communication between the head-mounted glasses and the external network.

14. The case of claim 1 , further comprising:

a wireless transceiver configured to establish a wireless communications link with the head-mounted glasses; and

a motion sensor coupled to the wireless transceiver and configured to generate motion data that is representative of one or more movements of the case, wherein the wireless transceiver is configured to transmit the motion data to the head-mounted glasses via the wireless communications link for remote control of the head-mounted glasses.

15. The case of claim 10 , further comprising:

a wireless transceiver configured to establish a wireless communications link with the head-mounted glasses; and

one or more user input devices coupled to the wireless transceiver, wherein the wireless transceiver is configured to transmit user input received via the one or more user input devices to the head-mounted glasses via the wireless communications link to trigger at least one camera of the head-mounted glasses to capture a video or photo.

16. A system comprising:

head-mounted glasses that include one or more cameras positioned in a frame of the head-mounted glasses; and

a portable case for carrying and physically protecting the head-mounted glasses, wherein the portable case includes:

a body portion having one or more walls defining an interior cavity that is configured to carry the head-mounted glasses, wherein the head-mounted glasses are at least partially operable in the interior cavity of the body portion, wherein the head-mounted glasses are removable from the interior cavity of the body portion;

a power supply included in the body portion for transferring power to the head-mounted glasses;

an electronic display disposed on an exterior surface of the body portion, wherein the electronic display is configured to present at least one video or photo captured by the one or more cameras; and

a calibration surface included in at least one wall of the one or more walls and positioned within the interior cavity to face the one or more cameras of the head-mounted glasses while the head-mounted glasses is are positioned within the interior cavity.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the calibration surface is configured to be captured by the one or more cameras to support calibrated subsequent image acquisition by the head-mounted glasses.

18. The system of claim 16 , wherein the portable case further comprises:

a wireless transceiver included in the body portion, wherein the wireless transceiver is configured to establish a wireless communications link with the head-mounted glasses.

19. A system comprising:

head-mounted glasses that includes:

a frame;
