TACKLING TRAVEL SICKNESS

Do you get carsick? Leave it to a car company to come up with a possible new solution. Citroën, the French carmaker, has developed the “Seetroën,” glasses with four rings: two in the usual place in front of your eyes and two that sit at a 90-degree angle to them, near your temples. Motion sickness develops when the brain receives conflicting messages about perceived motion from the eyes and from the inner ear. The rings, containing a colored liquid instead of lenses, work together to simulate the horizon. Citroën claims that its lensless glasses are 95 percent effective for adults and children over ten.
