Bollé has launched an ambitious new high-contrast lens called Volt +, their first developed using Artificial Intelligence (AI). It’s the latest innovation to come out of EPIC, Bollé’s lab based in Lyon, France. The technology will be included throughout Bollé’s line of sport and lifestyle sunglasses.

Bollé worked with HUE.AI to evaluate 20 million different lens formula combinations and arrived at an entirely new colour experience. In the past, high-contrast lenses have tended to enhance one colour while diminishing some others, but the Volt + enhances a huge spectrum, offering a complete lens that boosts and improves depth perception.

We tried out the Talent sunglasses with Volt + lens while paddling and hiking. Looking through the Volt + after a regular lens is akin to watching 5K video after an old VHS tape. Everything is repolished and more precise.

While hiking, the Volt + lenses evened out the shadows in the forest, allowing the eye to pick up more detail when transitioning from bright areas to darker. And while paddling, the polarization was more pronounced than average, all but eliminating glare and really clarifying underwater detail.

Partnering with M7 Innovations and QReal for the third time, Bollé is further supporting the launch with multiple Augmented Reality (AR) ‘try-on’ and ‘try out’ campaigns, allowing users to experience the Volt + lens’ new colours across 15 different frame styles.

Adventures like this one require an inspiring team. @timemmett is a longtime friend, adventure partner and extraordinary human; an explorer, pro climber, surfer, freediver—you name it. @luca.freediver is an incredibly talented freediver, fresh off breaking the Canadian national freediving record (85 metres). The fourth man on the team, @brianhockenstein, is a filmmaker and multi-talented snowboarder always ready to jump into the fray and capture the magic. - words Jimmy Martinello. #Linkinbio to learn more!
We came in search of the connection of the human spirit to both art and adventure, whether climbing from the depths of moulins and ice caves, breaking through ice while paddleboarding fjords, climbing icebergs, freediving between tectonic plates or surfing cold waves.
A thousand and one things could have gone wrong, but she made it to the top:  @mariepier.desharnais is the first Quebecois woman to climb K2.

In 1986 @beverlyglenncopeland recorded Keyboard Fantasies using an Atari computer, a keyboard and a drum machine. After releasing it on cassette and selling maybe 50 copies, he went back to writing for Sesame Street and making the odd guest appearance on Mr. Dressup. In 2015, a cassette made its way to Japanese collector Ryota Masuko, a record store owner with a big online presence, who quickly bought, and then sold, all the Keyboard Fantasies cassettes he could find. Record labels worldwide lined up to reissue the hidden gem on vinyl.
