分享到
Choosing shoes to match an outfit could soon be as simple - and cheap - as pressing a button on a smartphone.
想要選擇一件與衣服相配的鞋子將會像按智能手機(jī)上的按鈕一樣簡單,便宜。
A startup has designed a range of footwear that changes colour and design thanks to flexible e-ink displays built into the sides.
最近,一家創(chuàng)業(yè)公司設(shè)計出一系列可以變換顏色和圖案的高跟鞋,這是因為他們在鞋的兩側(cè)植入了兩個可彎曲的電子墨水顯示器。
The range also has 'anchors' on the toe and heel so physical accessories can be added to the Volvorii Timeless smart shoes.
除此之外,在鞋尖和鞋跟處還裝有配件“錨”,這樣一來,我們便可以將鞋部的裝飾品添加到Volvorii Timeless智能高跟鞋上。
The shoes were designed by Lithuania-based iShuu Technologies, which is currently seeking funding for the footwear on Indiegogo.
這種智能高跟鞋是由創(chuàng)業(yè)公司立陶宛iShuu所設(shè)計研發(fā)的,此刻他們?nèi)栽贗ndiegogo上進(jìn)行眾籌。
At the moment, prototypes are only available in black and white, but other colours are expected to launch if the campaign receives enough funding.
目前,這種原型高跟鞋只能變換出黑白兩色,但如果這個項目得到了足夠的資金支持,他們就有望開發(fā)出其他的顏色。
Each shoe has flexible e-ink displays on the left and right sides.
每只鞋的左右兩側(cè)都嵌入了可彎曲的電子墨水顯示器。
Inside the shoe's sole is a Bluetooth receiver that connects these displays to a smartphone app.
在鞋的底部還有一個藍(lán)牙接收器,它將鞋上顯示器與智能手機(jī)上的app連接起來。
Patterns including polka dots, animal stripes and flowers can then be selected and 'sent' to the displays on the shoes.
鞋的樣式有很多,其中包括圓點(diǎn)花紋,動物條紋和印花,我們可以從中任意選擇,并將選好的樣式發(fā)送到顯示器上。
'The Volvorii's clean, elegant, sturdy design brings gravitas, respect and formality in an unmistakable way,' said the campaign page.
活動頁面上寫到:“顯而易見,Volvorri智能鞋干凈、典雅、堅固的設(shè)計使其看起來頗為莊重、體面、正式?!?/p>
The shoe also has physical customisation options.
這種鞋還配有多種鞋部定制的選擇。
On the top of the toe and back of the heel are anchors, to which the wearer can attach accessories - a flower or bow on the toe, for example, and an ankle strap on the back.
在鞋尖和鞋跟處裝有配件“錨”,這可以讓穿者添加各種飾品—比如:鞋尖上的一朵花或是一朵蝴蝶結(jié),以及后跟處的踝帶。
They are made of rubber and leather in European sizes 36 to 40.
它們是由橡膠和皮革制作而成的,并按照歐洲人的尺寸制作了36到40號的高跟鞋。
A range of smaller and larger sizes are still in development.
更小和更大的鞋碼仍在制作中。
Another wireless module in the sole allows the shoe's display to be charged without cables.
另一個在鞋底的無線訊息模組可以讓高跟鞋兩側(cè)的顯示器無需插線便可充電。
However, because e-ink requires so little power, it will only need to be charged 'between two and six months' at the most.
然而,因為電子墨水耗能很少,它最多只需在2-6個月之間充一次電。
So far, the iShuu team has created a working prototype as part of the Louis Vuitton Prize for young fashion designers, but now the team is hoping to turn the prototype into a final product.
到目前為止,iShuu團(tuán)隊制作出的這種試樣高跟鞋已經(jīng)獲得路易威登年輕時尚設(shè)計師的大獎,但他們現(xiàn)在希望可以將這種試樣高跟鞋發(fā)展成為最終的產(chǎn)品。
The team is offering the Volvorii Timeless shoes $249 (£167) from Indiegogo, but he retail price after the campaign ends has not yet been announced.
團(tuán)隊在Indiegogo上將Volvorii Timeless高跟鞋的價格定為249美元(167英鎊),但在活動結(jié)束后他們并沒有宣布這雙鞋的零售價。
