Wink Glasses Will Make You Blink

wink_glassesI’m probably not the only one that gets dry eyes due to involuntarily not blinking during a long gaming session. Soon it will be possible to avoid that situation.

Japan’s Masunaga Optical Manufactoring has developed Winking Glasses. They have a built in sensor that tracks your blinks. If you do not blink after five seconds, the right lens fogs over until you blink again.

The glasses are going to go on sale in Japan this August for $150. I guess that is the price you pay to have healthy eyes (and look like you are from the future).
