From a human locomotion point of view, people do not normally glide around on ice rinks while using AR. All you need to monitor is translational vibration (evidence of non-rotational movement) which will be present regardless if you are walking or driving.

The GPS receivers built into wearables already detect the speed of motion (at least outdoors); designers could use them to stop notifications when the user is moving. And many AR wearables have cameras, so image analysis could likewise trigger a safety mode indoors in situations likely to cause trouble.
Do the authors not know what accelerometers are? That makes me question their expertise for writing about this subject.

Wheeler, 69, does not need to seek another job when he departs the FCC, and that freedom enables him to make the decisions he thinks is right, according to people close to the chairman.
Judging simply from his age, it's very implausible that his actions were part of a ploy to seek secure employment after the FCC.
