Get Smartphone Notifications in Front of Your Eyes With These Glasses

In our Always-Connected Society, our Smartphones are Often our Balls and Chains. We’re Constantly Looking at them, Checking for New Emails, Text Messages, Missed Phone Calls, Facebook Updates and Weather Alerts. But, What if you Could just Leave your Phone in your Pocket, or Even Elsewhere and Get your Notifications Delivered right in Front of your Eyes ? That’s Where Matilde’s "Fun-iki" Glasses Come in: you Wear them like Regular Glasses but, When a Notification Comes in on your Smartphone, the Glasses Lets you Know with a Series of Blinking Lights. The Glasses Connect to your Smartphone via Wi-Fi, which Means you Can still Get Notification so Long as you're within Wireless Range. The Frames Have LED Lights Embedded into them, which Leaves the Glasses Capable of Handling Prescription Lenses, if you Need them.


You Can Set your Notifications for Specific Colors, perhaps Blue for Facebook Messages, Red for Emails, or Green for Text Messages. The Glasses Work with your Basic Notifications but, Can also be Set to Work with 3rd-Party Apps. You Can Set the Light Intensity, too so that, you Don’t Look Like a Disco Ball Walking Down the Street When you Get Inundated with Emails. The Glasses also Have a Mode that Allows you to Get Messages in Morse Code so, if Something Urgent Comes in, you’ll See the Flashes as S.O.S. "Fun-iki" Glasses also Have Built-In Speakers and a Micro-USB Port for Charging. So Far, though, they Only Come in 2 Colors: White and Hipster Black. "Fun-iki" Glasses Go on Sale Later in 2014 for the Low Price of $147. That’s a Lot Cheaper than Google Glass but, it's Arguably a Lot More Distracting for you and Everybody around you Who has to See your Glasses Flash Different Colors.
