In this novel a small Virginia-based company, Savivision,
invents a revolutionary pair of eyeglasses which replaces the
smartphone, smart watch and earbuds/hearing aids. The
design team has developed an AI-based product with twodozen
space-age functions including heads-up displays.
Several prototypes are developed and given to individuals on a
trial basis. These eyeglasses use the "SAVI" voice command
to access the Internet and thousands of applications "to make
wearers smarter than Einstein."
The Savivision eyeglasses are so powerful they can't be worn
by students taking exams or job interviews. They play an
important role in college enabling liberal arts students to learn
technical trades for useful employment in the digital economy.
Before long, the invention makes huge contributions in the
fields of engineering, transportation, medicine, manufacturing,
education and sports. A googles version is used by the Navy
Seals. Savivision can also be worn on a lanyard to avoid the
tragedy of a heads down world of billions of smartphones.
The demand requires a secondary production source in Canada.
And it gets a terrific boost in sales due to a popular Saturday
Night Live monologue. In the end, it's clear that America has
developed another communications product which makes the
world smaller, smarter, hopefully, wiser.
