 Published: Apr 19, 07 Views: 3,089 I must be somewhat impaired, though it’s never been officially recognized: I love to watch movies with the captions/sub-titles on. This drives friends and family members crazy, but looky here! The Subtitle Glasses are definitely the answer for viewers like me, who seem to miss half or more of a movie, when deprived of closed captioning. This handy gadget even works in movie theaters, where the glasses pick up a the caption signal from a computer through an integrated receptor. The subtitles are then transmitted to the glasses and projected onto a mini screen right on the lens.  Subtitles are a two-edged sword - some people love them while others loathe them. I personally find it distracting, but folks at Madrid's Carlos III University for the Spanish Center for Subtitles and Closed Captions has developed a pair of Subtitle Glasses that gives subtitles even in a subtitle-free show. At least viewers in a public now have the freedom of choosing the option of having subtitles on or not. The Subtitle Glasses will retrieve information from a computer as long as it remains within a 50 meter range via an integrated receptor, projecting these subtitles onto the microscreen which is fitted over the right hand lens. Ole!
