    The one innovation I’ve wanted from this tech: a digital liquid crystal black circle that automatically blocks the sun from your eyes.

    In Canadian winters the sun sets and rises at peak commute hours, and it mixes with all the salt on your window to blind you both ways.

      And if the system confuses ridiculously bright oncoming headlights for the sun, all the better.

        Yeah I’m okay with that.

        This was my million dollar idea but it’s totally outside my wheelhouse to create.
