DeepOptics, an Israeli company, introduces its new product, 32°N, the first adaptive focus sunglasses, on Kickstarter. 32°N shades empower various prescriptions with a single pair of glasses. DeepOptics has fostered a proprietary lens technology that flawlessly switches between near and far vision by reorienting the pixels in the glass.
32°N is a solution for individuals encountering presbyopia, the age-related decrease in near vision, rather than juggling sunglasses and reading glasses and without the troublesome trade-offs of progressive lenses and bifocals. DeepOptics is backed up by some renowned investors, such as Essilor and Samsung Ventures.
The cost is likewise only $250 for a pair. These sunglasses can be preordered (at a discount) as a part of a Kickstarter campaign, which will take around 10 months to shipp.
32°N sunglasses highlight pixelated liquid crystal (LC) layers that are parted into minuscule pixels, fit for rotation at each place of the panel. When somebody swipes, they initiate the small processor inserted in the glasses' temple. The processor computes the person’s personal information and sends that information to shape the ideal lens prescription.
According to Yariv Haddad, the CEO and Co-Founder of DeepOptics, the company aims at improving human vision through dynamic optics. They aim at particularly solving the problem of Presbyopia, which affects a lot of people. 32°N is the first product and many more are yet to come, said Yariv.
It is totally silent and weightless with no moving parts. DeepOptics’ LC lenses foster a countless number of high-quality, dynamic lenses that can be instantly changed. Moreover, it functions one whole day and doesn’t require any adaptation period.
