NXT Unbreakable Sun Lenses
by: Benjamin W J Teo
Before the creation of NXT, optical lenses such as sunglasses were not impact resistance. And could cause serious injury to your eyes if the lenses were to crack or shatter.
Now with a breakthrough in technology, there is a universal solution for the optical market. NXT is made of soft, flexialbe and comes with a shatterproof guarantee. It protects the eyes from impacts, cuts, scratches, chemical and atmospheric agents.
?NXT is the greatest innovation in the past 40 years in the field of unbreakable transparent optical polymers.?
What is NXT made of?
The patented NXT technology was originally developed by Simula Technologies in the early 1990?s
but only for military use. The military need a material that was: transparent, lightweight and bullet proof and more superior than Polycarbonate.
In 1996 Simula Technologies partnered further develop this material and called it
NXT. This technology was specifically aimed at optical uses.
Today NXT is a proven new material with its own brand, and has become the new reference for unbreakable and transparent plastic sun lenses:
Charactistics of NXT
- Transparent and clear
- Unbreakable
- Lightweight
- Optically superior
- Easily worked without cracking
- Stable over time
- Solvent resistant
- Reliable
Some Advantages
NXT can be thermoformed, dye cut, pressure fastened, punched, riveted, slung grooved; all this without causing the material to be brittle.
The traditionally materials used for sunglass lenses all incurred similar problems called ?Stress Cracking.? It is caused when screws were inserted into the lens. Stress cracking can be insidious because cracks can appear after the production has ended which leads to defected products.
NXT is the first and only optical polymer available in two formats regular and soft; and is the first sun lens that can be folded without breakage or cracking.
The second variation of NXT is called NXTSoft which is obtained through a chemical modification of the original formula.
Lenses made of NXTSoft can be found on our website http://www.beauvision.com.au and is exclusive to our brand range of sunglasses and optical lenses.
NXTSoft has made it possible for rimless sunglasses to be worn during various physical activities without the risk of scratching or hurting the face in case of accidental collision thus making it one of the safest sun lenses in the world.

Focus on Features When Buying a Digital Camera
Being well informed about the main digital camera features before shopping means you will know which are worth the extra cost. Reading reviews and talking cameras with friends will be helpful, but here are the key points to consider.
The first thing you will notice when looking at digital cameras is the term megapixel is used often. Pixels are the colored dots that make up a digital image. The term megapixel means one million pixels. Most models are between two and five megapixels.
The more megapixels the sharper the image, generally, but the size of enlargement is the important issue. You will be okay with three megapixels for enlargements up to an 8x10, but for larger photos you'll want more. If you plan to go big, the extra expense for a five megapixel is worth it. But save your money if you will use the photos...

The ABCs Of Computer Memory
by: Ron King
Computer memory is called Random Access Memory (RAM). The information stored in RAM can be accessed randomly, rather than sequentially. This means that data can be found in any location at the same rate of speed. Other storage media, such as CD-Rom and hard drives, must wait while the drive spins to the correct location before the data can be accessed.
Computer memory is simply a storage area for the program code...
