The Shade Blade might not be the most aesthetically pleasing pair of sunglasses that you have set your eyes upon, but it comes with the interesting idea of adding a solar array visor on top, using sunlight to charge batteries which in turn powers a range of plug-and-play devices. Not only that, the designers claim that the future will bring tiny, interchangeable modules that come with different functions such as an AM/FM tuner, two-way radios, a cellphone, and even vision transmission technology. What is your idea of the ultimate pair of sunglasses? I know the Shade Blade doesn’t hold a place in my list, and for that I am thankful that it remains just a concept for the moment.
