【題目】
These new gloves are expensive, but they take the term “handsfree” to a new level. People can talk into them as they make a call. The gloves are known as “Talk to the Hand” and cost 1000 pounds a pair.
They come with a speaker unit embedded (把……嵌入) into the thumb(拇指) and a microphone built into the little finger that can be connected to any mobile handset using Bluetooth. Mobile phone users will be able to keep their hands warm while they chat without taking their phone out of their pocket or handbag.
Artist Sean Miles, form Winsor, designed the great gloves that double as a phone in part of his project. He combines(使……結(jié)合) gloves with parts from mobile handsets recycled through O2. Mr Miles designed two pairs of the new gloves: one in pink and the other in brown and yellow. They will appear in an exhibition this July and visitors will be able to win the gloves. If need is great, they will then be produced at a larger amount.
O2 Recycle, which backed the project, says that there are already 70 million unused mobiles handsets in the UK. Bill Eyers, head of O2 Recycle, asks people to recycle their phones responsibly.
Designer Sean Miles, the 41-year-old man behind the designs, said, “I hope that my Talk to the Hand project will get people to think again about the waste created by not recycling gadgets(小器具). If a few more people recycle their gadgets rather than throw them away as rubbish, I think this project will have lived up to its aim(目標(biāo)).”
Miles is now working on combining phones with handbag. So people don’t spend time rummaging around in their bags to find a phone when it rings.
