It’s easy to doze off when you’re in a long meeting, reading books or reading a lenghty blog post at TechChee. (That’s why I always keep my blog post short). It’ll be fatal if a driver happened to doze off when driving for a long journey, especially on the highway.
Luckily, some gadgets producers have the concern, we’ve seen the drive alert master before, which prevents driver to doze off, and now the MyDo Bururu anti-doze glasses introduced by the Japanese company, Vision Optic Co, also having similar funtionality. This pair of eyeglasses will use vibration to shake you up once an untimely “dozing off” movement is detected. For example, once your head drop to certain level, it’ll then wake you up by vibrating the ear piece!
The price is not very encouraging, it costs around $380.00. Basically this product is the combination of an ear-piece-like nap alarm by another Japanese company, Takanoha Co and the eyeglasses of Vision Optic Co. If you think it’s too expensive, you can just buy the nap alarm, which costs you only $15.00. The difference is the nap alarm uses beeping sound to wake you up, which the MyDo Bururu anti-doze glasses gives a total shake that is difinitely more vibrant! Don’t you think so?
