Multi-function glasses in credit card format

Abstract

Multi-function glasses in credit card format, including: ◯ a base area with dimensions of 85.60 mm x 53.98 mm according to the standard size of a credit card (Fig. 1), ◯ an additional surface with identical dimensions (85.60 mm x 53.98 mm), which is horizontally connected to the base and results in a total length of 171.20 mm when unfolded (Fig. 2 to 4) ◯ a visualization system with two ocular surfaces, which is made possible by the extended width, ◯ a folding mechanism that allows the glasses to be folded to a size of 85.60 mm x 53.98 mm (Fig. 4).

Description

[0001] The invention we present involves using the standard size of a credit card (85.60 mm x 53.98 mm) and adding an identical area (85.60 mm x 53.98 mm) horizontally adjacent to it, achieving a total length of 171.20 mm. This new width of the credit card enables the creation of a visualization system with two ocular surfaces. When folded, the card—again 85.60 mm x 53.98 mm in size—can be stored.

[0002] The application of this visualization system using a modification of a credit card has various applications: 1) As a solar eclipse observer using certified filters according to DIN EN ISO 12312-2:2015 (“Filters for direct observation of the sun”) 2) As a magnifying glass to enlarge objects and letters on digital or printed surfaces. Fresnel lenses, for example, are used here. 3) As reading glasses for reading printed or digitally published texts in small print for people with presbyopia. 4) As a stereoscopic viewer using polarized lenses. This requires monitors or screens that are compatible with polarizing filters. 5) As a stereoscopic viewer using anaglyph color filters. 6) As a stereoscopic viewer, the use of filters or prismatic lenses to cause convergence or divergence of view and create the stereoscopic effect with photographs or digital documents published as stereo pairs.

[0003] Other filters can be used for a different form of visualization in the present or in the future.

[0004] The surface not used by lenses or filters provides sufficient space to securely hold the newly created card with your fingers. Furthermore, there is sufficient space (front and back) to print both direct information (about the usage system and the viewer's application) and indirect information via QR codes, which can digitally expand the information using smartphones or tablets. Additional features • The glasses are easy to transport and save space thanks to their foldable design. • The materials are chosen to be robust and durable while being lightweight.
