AIG F566, MP3 player and digital camera-shaped sunglasses

By Andrew | June 10, 2008

Now that summer arrives sure that many have used to renovate its obsolete sunglasses by others with a more fashion design and brand in the pure RayBan.  Not a bad example to follow, but that should not follow every good geek, because a good geek should buy these AIG F566.

These glasses are AIG F566 type CIA agent because not only protect our eyes from the sun’s rays, but also allow us to listen to music while wearing thanks to its compatibility with MP3 and WMA files can be stored in the internal memory device, which can be 1 GB or 2 GB depending on the model they purchase; obviously has a USB port that will serve as a bridge between our glasses and our computer for file transfer.

Ojo, which functions do not end there. It has a 1.3 megapixel CMOS sensor which makes these glasses in a practical way to take pictures at a resolution of 1280 x 1024 pixels, thus fulfilling the “watch what they see my eyes.”  And ask yourself, how do you control the camera?  Should we play button on some glasses?  No, it will not be necessary because the photographs and music playback is controlled through a remote control that we can always take over.
