Whoever thought this up is a genius

Nice. Surprised it isn't wireless though. Maybe that'd be too slow.

Next step - incorporate into them a translation service, DeepL or Google translate.

Khandro, the report says it can already translate in 9 languages

I wonder how well it copes with accents?

Its brilliant isn't it? Eric Sykes had glasses that enhanced his hearing through sound amplification, there was no glass in them! But these new ones are amazing.

Dagman, I think Eric's glasses had his hearing aids on the arms of the glasses.
I remember an episode of Rumpole of the Bailey where the witness described a conversation she had overheard. Rumpole asked her if she was wearing her glasses at the time, and she said she wasn't.
He asked her to take them off and she couldn't hear him - she had the same sort of hearing aids as Eric.
Funny the things that stick in one's mind

The tech is great, but you do realise this is an advert, yes? Ms Ghouri has just been appointed ambassador for the company which makes them. Look how may times Xrai is mentioned.

She's also the ambassador for Ann Summers. When an article is discussing a branded item, the brand will me mentioned many times.
