Goggle Search


As we get older, it is nice to know that technology has our back.

I remember that the best thing that happened for my mother was the advent of cellphones so she could use her landline to call her cellphone when she lost it, or vice verse.

For our generation, we'll have super duper goggles that will help us find our lost car keys and other objects. The University of Tokyo developed goggles that help you find objects and learn new to recognize new objects. The goggles tie into one's backpack computer (what, you don't have one?).

It also has application in finding hard to find flora and fauna in the forest, but let's be clear - it was probably developed by a women who grew weary of helping her husband or son find the ketchup in the fridge.

Male Pattern Blindness is a serious affliction. Now if they can make the goggles connect to our iPhones via Bluetooth, we'll be cooking with gas.
