Enshey Horizontal Prism Lazy Glasses, Prism Spectacles, Periscope Eyeglasses - For Reading and Watching TV in Bed While Lying Flat

Product Information

The 15 is an incremental upgrade, and that’s just fine. The rollout of the 14’s innovative open-from-both-sides mechanical architecture is welcome. Investments in camera hardware are always well spent, and the periscope is particularly innovative. Given the expense, reduced drop test tolerance, recycling challenges, and fragile finish, titanium doesn’t seem like the best long-term material for a smartphone—but we’re impressed Apple pulled it off. We tip our hats at the materials engineers, but aluminum works just fine from our perspective.

Wilcox created the glasses from one sheet of mirrored acrylic with a slight bend to ensure that the smaller mirror can reflect the bigger one, resulting in better sight for the wearer. IMAGE: Dominic Wilcox The single largest use of metal in the iPhone is in the outer frame, so that’s where Apple turned to advanced metallurgy to save some grams and gain some marketing points.And now everyone can reap the benefits! In addition to obvious compatibility advantages, the new USB-C port can provide 4.5 watts of power to external devices. That’s a massive 15x upgrade over previous Lightning phones, which can only output 0.3 watts. Manufacturers tend to avoid titanium if at all possible, not just because it’s expensive but because it’s notoriously hard to work with. Some people get their thrills from bungee jumping or scoring a winning goal at Wembley, but I get mine from coming up with creative ideas’’ Wilcox told the Mirror.

Dominic Wilcox, a British designer and industrialist, has created the "One Foot Taller" glasses, which are essentially a pair of periscope glasses that let you see over the heads of people in front of you. The glasses are created using a sheet of mirrored acrylic with a 45-degree bend, to ensure the smaller mirror can reflect the larger mirror, which faces outwards, giving whoever wears them a better view. Parts pairing in these models extends beyond mere mechanical compatibility, requiring authentication and pairing through Apple’s System Configuration tool, further limiting genuine replacements to Apple-blessed ones and substantially impacting independent repair enterprises and the overarching issue of e-waste.Creativity is important because the world has many problems and challenges, and we need a lot more people with creative solutions to solve them. Interestingly, Wilcox’s invention surfaced just in time when after Microsoft Surface challenged inventors to come up with 'extraordinary solutions' for 'everyday problems' for an exhibition in London.

While the titanium itself is very hard, the coating on the titanium scratches quite easily. Thanks to Evident Scientific for assistance with the imagery. Electronics Talking about the inspiration behind the funky eyewear, Wilcox said, "I was standing at a gig and turned to see a small woman dancing away but unable to see the band. This gave me the inspiration to design a way for people to see over obstacles such as tall people like me.This inverted chassis arrangement makes critical repairs like battery swaps slightly riskier than on the 14, because you’re removing the expensive, fragile display rather than an inert sheet of glass.
