If there is one, it has just been crossed.

Part socks. Part clever.


A DIY project inspired by you.


Sometimes a show is so good, you just can’t stop. And the next thing you know, zzzzz. Netflix socks detect when you’ve dozed off and send a signal to your TV, automatically pausing your show. Never again will you binge-watch yourself to sleep, only to wake up two seasons later wondering what happened.

 

Sure, Rip Van Winkle could have used those.
