Hello!
First, I verified that there is a good amount of literature on augmented reality (which is a really cool topic!). Then I used the successful search terms in each database:
Next I substituted HIPAA for the EMR search term. Following that, I substituted patient privacy.
Combining augmented reality and verified search terms, I got absolutely no hits for any of the searches. I then ran all of the searches in PubMed, a huge database. I got one hit, an article that we don't have full text for, Clinical and surgical applications of smart glasses. I don't know how relevant the article is. Basically, the literature has not made the connection between augmented reality devices and possible breaches of privacy.
For an undergrad paper, you could raise the issue of security if the various augmented reality devices are accessible through the hospital's network or if they can be hacked.
As a grad student, it would make an awesome long term research project. You should keep it in mind!
