Never Be Afraid to Get Hit in the Face in the Dark Again
Elise Ying-Hei Ho — October 2, 2012 — Tech
Darkness isn’t going to be a problem anymore with Hasbro’s NERF FIREVISION games. Designed to be played indoors or outdoors at night, the NERF balls are glow-in-the-dark, so you won’t be blind-sighted at night.
The NERF FIREVISION balls—available in football and basketball—come with a pair of FIREVISION frames that are fastened onto the head almost like a pair of glasses, but without the lenses. To see the glowing ball, the frames, which don’t require charging, must be turned on. It’s never fun being called back home because it’s late out or you’re afraid the ball is going to smack you in the face, but Hasbro’s microprism technology allows you and your children to play in an illuminated space regardless of the time.
