LED sleep mask

From pinktentacle.com:

For drowsy train commuters afraid of sleeping past their stop, inventor and manga artist Pyocotan has developed “Noriko-san,” a sleep mask with an electronic scrolling display that communicates the wearer’s destination to fellow passengers.

Nobody woke him up when he reached his destination. How much of that can be attributed to the rather intimidating, wire-packed mask?

We may have bluetooth headsets, but the acceptance of head-mounted anything might plateau the moment it starts concealing our actual face.

How about it a post-it note on the forehead?
