Summary[edit]

Description

She dreams of electric dinosaurs. Sculpture by Joe Andolina, made from Silicon Graphics computer boards.

The thinking cap is from Estonia, a speaker gift for the <a href="http://foorum.itl.ee/visioon2004/eng" rel="nofollow">Visioonist</a> business conference in Pärnu.

The hip glasses were the subject of <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/jurvetson/6742819">puzzle 42</a>.

They are an early prototype of user-adjustable eyeglasses from <a href="http://www.adaptive-eyecare.com" rel="nofollow">Adaptive Eyecare</a>, a U.K. based company seeking to provide inexpensive vision correction for the billion people that need still it (according to World Health Organization estimates).

Using elastic mylar lenses filled with a highly refractive silicone oil, they created $5 glasses that the user can adjust for each eye, without an optometrist or expensive lens grinding infrastructure. One product fits all, and can even be shared.
