Well, we have our manufacturer in place, and you can see our first prototypes in one of the figures here: http://io9.com/5981916/how-mark-changizis-weird-theory-on-human-vision-helped-him-conquer-colorblindness-with-eyewear

We also have mirrored versions now, although not quite for sale yet.

When can we expect the non pinks

Hi Gwen,

Our filters (all three of them at O2Amp) are different than Didymium. It’s not the tint that does the “work”, but the specific regions let through or blocked. There are infinitely many distinct filters that end up with the perceptually identical tint, for example.

We have, in fact, a second manufacturer producing non-pink, polarized, versions — these ones are your typical sunglasses color. …yet do the same filtering function as our Oxy-Amp.

Sincerely,

-Mark

how are these different than Didymium glasses in the same tint for glassblowing and in photo filters for “enhancement filters” ?

Yes. It relies on the universal properties of blood visible through the skin. Darker skin may need greater illuminant, but otherwise equivalent. (See suppl materials of http://www.changizi.com/colorface.pdf for data on this, actually.)

Does the glasses work for all skin types?

For emotion sensing, one must remember that one is already doing it under normal conditions, but you’re not generally consciously aware of it. With the Oxy-Amp technology, those same mechanisms you normally use just get a better, cleaner signal. I greatly enjoy wearing them.
