In the way that the bluetooth earpiece revolutionized the way that people chat on their mobile phones in public, the Telepathy One innovatively affords users the possibility of getting a glimpse of their contacts as well. This can be done without the assistance of your smartphone's display.
Dreamed up by the Design Labo Inc., this piece of streamlined headgear has been sharply sculpted into a fine metal band that wraps around the back of your head and half of your face. It has an earbud sticking out of either side, cushioned by a black silicone plug; a tiny micro-projection unit is integrated into its tip and is supposed to be positioned in front of one eye. The thin form of the Telepathy One allows you to wear it while you walk around, not interfering with your vision of the physical world before you.
