Of all the companies that one might expect to hold a [Mother's Day campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strong-like-mom), a porn site would likely fall low on the list, but Pornhub's 'Mommy's Special Glasses' are just that. The Mother's Day gift consists of a card with a link on it. That card folds and transforms into set a of [virtual reality glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nothing-vr-headset-concept), and when mom follows the link on her smartphone and inserts it into the folded card, she'll be treated to "the best night of her life."

Pornhub's headset follows the concept of [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/google-glasses) Cardboard, with a low tech solution to providing VR entertainment. The card itself, along with the naughty link, carries instructions for how to fold it and insert one's smartphone, so even a tech neophyte will be able to use it.
