The prototype device, called Wear Space,\u00a0is designed to keep people distraction-free when working in busy spaces or open-plan offices by blocking them off from their immediate surroundings.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

These are just plain f#@king dumb. (In my opinion)<\/p>\n

Just build your office with some walls. The open-plan office works for some companies but not for most. We have proof of that now<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Inventing something akin to a dog wearing a cone on their head and slapping some bluetooth headphones in them is not<\/em> the solution.<\/p>\n
