These are glasses and a watch specially made for Els. Els has alzheimer, a form of dimentia. She also has bad sight so she has problems with reading the time. These are glasses where you can punt a sleave over with speakers in. These are connected to the watch using bluetooth. The watch has one big button. The volume is adjustable by twisting the outer shell of the watch. This is very intuitive.Its aslo subtle because only Els can hear it when she wears the glasses.
