A New Twist (Sip?) On The Mobile Lifestyle: „Ok, here’s a new twist on the Mobile Lifestyle. Two MIT students have designed wireless glasses. No, not the seeing kind, the sipping kind. If you and your drinking partner are not together the two glasses will allow you to feel like you’re drinking together when you are miles apart. When either person picks up a glass, red LEDs on their partner’s glass glow gently. And when either puts the glass to their lips, sensors make white LEDs on the rim of the other glass glow brightly, so you can tell when your other half takes a sip. Following tests in separate labs, Lee says the wireless glasses really do ‚help people feel as if they are sharing a drinking experience together‘ Adds a new twist to the old ‚clink, clink‘ Via BoingBoing.“
