Data Goggles or Eye Massager?
by Mark Frauenfelder from on (#4J532)
Suggested marketing copy for the Breo iSee4 Eye and Temple Massager Temple:
He is wearing shiny goggles that wrap halfway round his head; the bows of the goggles have little earphones that are plugged into his outer ears.
The earphones have some built-in noise cancellation features. This sort of thing works best on steady noise...
The goggles throw a light, smoky haze across his eyes, and reflect a distorted wide-angle view of a brilliantly lit boulevard that stretches off into an infinite blackness. This boulevard does not actually exist; it is a computer-generated view of an imaginary place.
Actually, the eye massager does not immerse you into the Metaverse, but Snow Crash fans will want this anyway!
