The Theory Is Real
Anti-NPC Observation Sunglasses

Anti-NPC Observation Sunglasses

Polarized at an unconventional axis. Makes simulation-origin agents easier to read.

$78.00

Standard-looking sunglasses with the polarization axis rotated 17 degrees off the industry default. The offset degrades the render quality of simulated subjects in the wearer's peripheral field, which makes the seven-second pause behavior easier to detect at a distance.

You will notice the effect most in fluorescent-lit retail spaces and at bus stops after 4:00 PM. You will notice it less outdoors in full sunlight, for reasons documented in our library.

Frames are acetate. Do not leave on the dashboard of a vehicle; the axis drifts above 45 °C.
