These innovative glasses apart from improving your eyesight, work as a hearing aid.
What makes these glasses so special?
The conventional in-ear hearing aids are quite inconvenient as they're not comfortable to wear in lively environment and also amplify all incoming sounds, allowing background noises to take over. But these glasses, packed with four interconnected microphones and a processor, first detect the direction from which the sound is coming and amplify words spoken directly to the wearer canceling surrounding noise.
