In one of the most significant orders, American Paper Optics landed a 17-million piece 3-D glasses order with toy and game giant Mattel for worldwide in-pack distribution of a "Barbie" DVD in 3-D. National Geographic Kids magazine brought American Paper Optics on board to manufacture 1.5 million 3-D viewer inserts for its September 2005 edition slated for both U.S. and international publication. In 1998, Jerit worked with National Geographic to pioneer the 3-D promotions craze with 20 million 3-D bind-in viewers inserted into 10 million issues of the magazine featuring 3-D imagery from Mars Rover expeditions and the Titanic wreckage.

Glasses with photosensitive lenses, called photochromic lenses, become darker in the presence of UV light. Unfortunately, many car windshields block the passage of UV light, making photochromic lenses less effective whilst driving on bright days. Still, they offer the convenience of not having to carry both clear glasses and sunglasses to those who frequently go indoors and outdoors during the course of a day.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Jan. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Often stereotyped as brainy geeks with coke-bottle glasses, inventors seldom win any teen popularity contests. Their status... is rising among teens. According to the latest Lemelson-MIT Invention Index(TM), an annual survey of Americans' perceptions about inventing and innovating, teens do recognize the value and importance of inventors when survival is at stake. Using the hypothetical and popular example of being stranded on a desert island, the study finds that almost half of all teens (46%) surveyed would choose the company of an inventor over a famous musician, athlete or actor -- the prevailing teen role models. This indicates that inventors, although not revered as celebrities, hold a vital place in the minds of many American teens.
