South Korean industrial designer Paeng Min-wook, 28, has come up with a satirical solution for "smartphone zombies" who can’t take their eyes away from their screen long enough to stop themselves walking into a wall or other obstacle.

為了眼睛無法離開螢幕太久，所以無法防止自己撞到牆或其他障礙物的「智慧型手機殭屍」，28歲的南韓工業設計師彭旻旭（譯音），想出一套諷刺的解決辦法。

He has developed a robotic eyeball dubbed "The Third Eye," which obsessive mobile phone users can strap to their foreheads so they can browse injury-free.

他開發出一種名為「第3隻眼」的機械眼球，讓沉迷手機的人綁在自己額頭上，可以盡情瀏覽手機而不會受傷。

The device opens its translucent eyelid whenever it senses the user’s head has been lowered to look at a smartphone. When the user comes within one to two metres of an obstacle, the device beeps to warn of the impending danger.

每當這顆眼球感測到使用者低頭看手機，就會睜開半透明的眼皮。當使用者距離障礙物1至2公尺內，它就會嗶嗶叫警告危險逼近。

"This is the look of future mankind with three eyes," Paeng, a postgraduate in innovation design engineering at the Royal College of Art and Imperial College London, said.（Reuters）
