Motion Sickness Defeated by Glasses?

This is the promise of Boarding Glasses, the French startup founded in 2015 by two brothers, Antoine and Renaud Jeannin.

Trying to put an end to this multi-millennial problem may seem ambitious or even reckless. But easing the discomfort of hundreds of millions of passengers around the world is an exciting challenge.

Also called motion sickness, transport malaise is caused by a sensory conflict between the inner ear, which perceives movement, and the eye, which does not see it. How many times have you heard your parents ask you to watch the road when you first showed symptoms? And how many times have you advised your children the same if you are now parents yourself? The best way to combat this phenomenon is indeed to restore coherence between the senses.

With an innovative approach, Boarding Glasses allow the eye to perceive the reality of movement. The frame of these glasses contains a blue liquid that reacts to vehicle movements and creates an artificial horizon in the user’s peripheral visual field. Thanks to this patented scientific solution called Boarding Ring, the sensory conflict is supposed to disappear instantly, and discomfort to fade away in a few minutes.

The company advances to a new level by presenting its first model of sunglasses. Combining maximum protection against UV rays with cutting-edge anti-motion sickness technology, Boarding Ring creates an accessory suitable for all travels, whether you are surfing the waves or heading up the ski slopes.

This new model features polarized filters of category 3, providing maximum UV protection while offering clear and glare-free vision. Naturally, the glasses also incorporate the patented Boarding Ring technology, renowned for its unrivaled effectiveness against motion sickness. These polarized glasses make the blue liquid less conspicuous without compromising their effectiveness.
