The Thousand Eyes of Bee

The Thousand Eyes of Bee by loris gobbi from italy

designer's own words:

Security, high performance, sharing. Cyclists whenever who turn their heads take or create a risk, such as falls, in the race and on the streets in training.(sometimes as a serious investment by truck). My inspiration is the bee, with its thousands of watchful eyes and long feelers. Large eyes and oval. Building on the success of Oakley Trench Coat 90s and its forms have reinterpreted its oval shapes bringing to look like a bee. I wanted to create a pair of glasses with microcamera: one on the front to record, take pictures and share what is happening (maybe live for great event) and another on the other side that I call Feeler (which inspired me the bee, applied with a pull-out jack, adjustable and durable) for to not turn more their heads because I see everything on a monitor placed in eyewear. Monitor where you can view information apply modern technology. Everything installed on the side of the frame with touch buttons. Rechargeable with USB port where you can download video and data.
Alternative to feeler there is a microcamera wifi shaped sting applicable to helmet or bike.
The construction frame glasses could be in the form of honeycomb, influence for developing new products. The material could be 3D printed nylon makes it waterproof, easy to clean, super light, anatomically accurate as well as recyclable. Alternative carbon frame honeycomb. I saw a video of Oakley Cavendish. I am a fun. Maybe it will help him to not be surprised in the sprint. :) And who knows what it will resume the tour de france by his glasses in a thousand eyes of a bee. But safety first and foremost. Best Regards Loris
