Most office chairs operate on a quiet assumption that sitting is something your body should adapt to, not the other way around. You adjust the height, nudge the lumbar support into roughly the right position, and then spend the rest of the day subtly fighting the chair anyway. The ache between your shoulders, the stiffness in your lower back by mid-afternoon, that’s just part of the deal, apparently, and most of us have accepted it without much argument.
LiberNovo decided not to accept it. The result is the Omni, a chair the company calls a Dynamic Ergonomic Chair, and it just picked up the iF DESIGN AWARD 2026 in the Product Design – Beauty/Wellness category. The iF Design Award has been one of the most internationally respected design recognitions since 1954, with this year’s cycle drawing more than 10,000 entries from over 60 countries. That’s a serious field to stand out in

The core idea behind the Omni is that your posture doesn’t stay fixed throughout a workday, so your chair probably shouldn’t either. The Bionic FlexFit Backrest is built around that logic, using 16 spherical pivot points, 8 adaptive flexible panels, and 14 dual-connection points to follow the natural curve of your spine as it shifts. It covers you from the hips up through the shoulders, spreading pressure across the whole back rather than piling it onto one fixed lumbar point.
What makes this work in practice is the Dynamic Support system, which adjusts automatically to changes in your posture without you having to reach for anything. Lean forward during a focused stretch of work, sit back when you’re thinking something through, the chair tracks those shifts, and responds in real time. It’s the kind of feature that sounds modest until you realize how much of your day you’ve spent adjusting a chair that couldn’t do this.
Then there’s OmniStretch, which is where the Omni starts to feel like something genuinely different. Sitting for long hours compresses the lower spine gradually, and most chairs just let that happen. OmniStretch is a guided decompression feature that gently stretches the lower spine during the workday, designed to actively relieve pressure rather than simply tolerate it. It’s probably why the iF jury placed the Omni in the Beauty/Wellness category: this chair isn’t just holding you up, it’s doing a bit of recovery work along the way.
The Omni also offers four recline positions running from 105 to 160 degrees. The shallower end is built for focused, upright work, while the deep 160-degree Spine Flow position is designed for full spinal decompression between sessions. The two intermediate angles cover the range in between, which gives the chair a kind of daily rhythm that matches how most people actually move through their hours rather than sitting rigidly in one position all day.
The chair was developed by LiberNovo’s team in Shenzhen alongside industrial design firm Kairos Innovation, also based there. Winning an iF award is meaningful external confirmation that the design thinking behind the Omni translates beyond the product brief. For a chair that started from the premise that desk work doesn’t have to hurt, that’s a pretty good place to land.

If not Palantir, why Palantir-shaped??
Palantir builds spy tech for the CIA, DHS, and ICE. It aggregates data, maps your life, and tells governments who to watch. Meta is building something with the same bones. It’s called Name Tag, a facial recognition feature coming to Ray-Ban smart glasses that lets a wearer look at a stranger in public and have an AI identify them in real time, pulling their name and profile directly from Facebook and Instagram. The surveillance hardware is a $300 fashion accessory, the database was built by 3 billion people tagging photos for free, and the targets are anyone, anywhere, who never agreed to any of it.
A leaked internal memo from May 2025, obtained by The New York Times, laid out the full scope: the feature is planned for every pair of Meta’s glasses, from Ray-Bans to the Oakley Meta HSTN sports line. Meta’s official response was a practiced non-denial: “we’re still thinking through options and will take a thoughtful approach if and before we roll anything out.” Companies that aren’t building something just say they’re not building it. Meta is not saying that.
Facebook turned on automatic photo tagging in 2010 with zero opt-in, and for eleven years, every time you tagged a friend’s face in a photo, you were feeding their facial recognition model. When Meta “deleted” over a billion faceprints in 2021 under lawsuit pressure, they kept the photos. They kept the social graph. They kept the engineers who built the whole thing. Name Tag isn’t a new product concept; it’s a previously mothballed capability getting a second run, this time with a camera on your face instead of a server in Menlo Park.
Anyone with a public Instagram account is immediately a potential target (it’s not like making your account private makes you any safer), which covers hundreds of millions of people who signed up to share photos, not to be enrolled in a real-world biometric identification system. Remember Portal, Meta’s smart home display with a face-tracking camera? It launched in 2018 right in the middle of the Cambridge Analytica fallout, and consumers collectively declined to put a Facebook camera in their living room. Meta discontinued it by 2022. The lesson they apparently took wasn’t “don’t build surveillance hardware.” It was “make sure the camera comes in wearing someone else’s face.”
“We will launch during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns.” That’s a sentence directly from an official internal planning document from Meta’s Reality Labs, dated May 2025, reviewed by The New York Times. The company was explicitly planning to exploit civic chaos as a launch window, timing the rollout of a mass surveillance feature to coincide with another crisis-event that occupies our mind so we’re distracted. Sleight of hand, with a dash of corporate evil. There’s no ethical framework in which that sentence represents good-faith product development.
Their original rollout plan was to debut Name Tag at a conference for the blind, wrapping a mass-surveillance tool in the language of accessibility before expanding it to the general public. That plan was eventually shelved, but the thinking behind it is the more revealing part. The accessibility framing was a softening mechanism, a way to generate human-interest coverage before the obvious misuse cases took over the conversation. Privacy advocates, abuse charities, and civil liberties groups were going to come for this feature regardless. The strategy was never to address their concerns. It was to buy a news cycle of goodwill first.
Swedish newspapers Svenska Dagbladet and Göteborgs-Posten tracked Meta’s data pipeline from Ray-Ban glasses worn in Western homes to a company called Sama, operating out of an office park in Nairobi, Kenya. Workers there are paid to watch footage captured by glasses users and label what they see, teaching Meta’s AI to understand and interpret the visual world. The footage includes people on the toilet, naked bodies, couples in bed, bank card details accidentally filmed, and intimate conversations being had by people who had no idea they were being recorded, let alone reviewed by a contractor on another continent.
Meta’s defense was to point at a clause buried in their terms of service permitting “manual (human)” review of AI interactions, which is technically accurate and practically worthless as a justification, because no person buying a pair of fashion-forward smart glasses understands that clause to mean workers in Kenya are watching them undress. The April 2025 privacy policy update for the glasses silently expanded Meta’s right to use all captured photos, videos, and audio for AI training, with no prominent notification to existing owners. A class action lawsuit filed in San Francisco federal court in March 2026 argues this constitutes consumer fraud, given that Meta’s own marketing described the glasses as “designed for privacy, controlled by you.” The UK’s Information Commissioner’s Office wrote to Meta characterizing the situation as “concerning,” which in British regulatory language lands somewhere between “deeply troubled” and “genuinely alarmed.”
The fine history reads like a repeat offender’s rap sheet. Meta paid $650 million to settle an Illinois class action over collecting facial geometry without consent through Facebook’s “Tag Suggestion” feature. They paid another $68.5 million for the same BIPA violation in 2023. In 2024, Texas extracted $1.4 billion from them for capturing biometric data on millions of Texans “for commercial purposes” without informed consent, with the lawsuit specifically alleging Meta was disclosing that data for profit. That’s over $2.1 billion in biometric privacy penalties across four years, all for variations of the same violation, against the same company, building the same technology.
None of it changed the product roadmap. The Texas settlement of $1.4 billion represents roughly one percent of Meta’s $134 billion in 2023 revenue. The Electronic Privacy Information Center has filed complaints with the FTC calling Name Tag a direct facilitator of “stalking, harassment, doxxing and worse.” The EU’s AI Act classifies real-time remote biometric identification in public spaces as high-risk AI and prohibits it for most commercial applications. The fines and the regulatory pressure are clearly baked into Meta’s planning rather than functioning as deterrents. They paid $2.1 billion to establish what a decade of biometric data collection actually costs, looked at that number next to their revenue, and decided it wasn’t a fine. It was an investment.
Name Tag as currently designed still requires the wearer to deliberately trigger an identification query. The next product removes even that minimal friction. Internal documents describe “super sensing” glasses with always-on cameras and microphones that record continuously for the entire duration they’re worn, feeding an unbroken stream to an AI assistant that builds a fully searchable log of the wearer’s day. The surveillance model shifts from opt-in query to permanent ambient default. Every person who passes within the glasses’ field of view gets their face processed, regardless of whether they’ve opted out, regardless of whether they even know the technology exists.
The threat model was demonstrated in 2024 by two Harvard students, AnhPhu Nguyen and Caine Ardayfio, using nothing but current, available hardware. They connected Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 glasses to PimEyes, a commercial facial recognition engine, alongside LLM data extraction tools, FastPeopleSearch, and Cloaked.com for social security lookups. Streaming the feed to Instagram Live, they identified strangers on the Boston subway and pulled names, home addresses, phone numbers, and social security numbers in seconds. They approached a woman on the street, told her they’d met at a Cambridge Community Foundation event, and she believed them. They told a female student her Atlanta home address and her parents’ names; she confirmed they were right. Name Tag doesn’t make this possible. It already is possible. Name Tag just makes it Meta’s official product.
Meta’s proposed safeguards rely on limiting identification to connected contacts or public accounts, and offering an opt-out toggle buried in Instagram settings. The connected-contacts restriction doesn’t address the most statistically common danger. Stalkers, abusers, and harassers overwhelmingly target people they already know. Limiting the feature to existing connections doesn’t reduce the risk to the most vulnerable users; it focuses it on them. Domestic abuse charities in the UK raised this point directly, noting that abusers could use Name Tag to locate survivors who have relocated, changed their appearance, or created entirely new digital identities to stay safe.
The opt-out toggle is available to Instagram’s roughly 2 billion monthly active users, almost none of whom will encounter it organically. Privacy protections that require the potential victim to proactively locate and activate a setting are not privacy protections. They are liability documentation. Abuse survivors, journalists, political dissidents, undocumented individuals, people in witness protection: these are the people with the highest stakes, and also the people with the least bandwidth to hunt through app settings on the off chance that facial recognition has been added to a device they don’t even own. The toggle protects Meta in a courtroom. It protects its users in no meaningful sense at all.
Twenty years of tagging photos, liking posts, following accounts, and uploading selfies. Every interaction trained the model. Every tagged face sharpened the database. Meta framed all of it as self-expression and social connection, and it was, but it was also free labor on the world’s largest biometric mapping project. The glasses are the hardware layer that connects that digital registry to the physical world. The data collection phase is largely complete. The deployment phase is now.
Reddit ran the same playbook with text and nobody stopped them either. In early 2024, Reddit signed a $60 million-per-year deal with Google to license user-generated content for AI training, then struck a separate deal with OpenAI estimated at $70 million annually. Two decades of forum posts, niche expertise, personal advice, and community-built knowledge that users created for each other got packaged and sold to the highest bidder. Users built the database. Reddit sold it. The users got nothing except the knowledge that their words now live inside a model they don’t control. Meta’s version is identical in structure and more intimate in substance, because the asset being extracted isn’t something you typed. It’s your face, your home, and the faces of everyone in your immediate vicinity.
While all of this unfolds on the hardware and data side, Meta is simultaneously stripping privacy from the software side. End-to-end encryption for Instagram DMs dies on May 8, 2026. Meta’s stated justification is that “very few people” were using it, which is a direct consequence of never making it the default and never promoting it. After May 8, Meta retains full technical access to message content, which means any contractor, government request, or legal process with sufficient leverage can access it too. The feature was specifically extended to users in Ukraine and Russia during the war as a safety measure for people in genuine danger. Those users are now being told to download their chats before the cutoff. The facial recognition is the front door. The unencrypted message access is the unlocked safe. At some point the question stops being “is Meta building a surveillance company?” and starts being “why are we still acting like it isn’t one?”

On a quiet stretch of coastline on the Greek island of Syros, a new resort seems to almost disappear into the landscape. Designed by the Athens-based firm Ateno Architecture Studio, Olen is a small seven-suite hotel that has been carefully carved into the rocky cliffs overlooking the Aegean Sea. Instead of standing out as a bold architectural object, the project quietly blends into its surroundings, allowing the landscape to remain the star of the show.
The site itself is relatively untouched, with rugged terrain and uninterrupted views across the sea. For the architects, this meant approaching the project with sensitivity. The aim was not simply to build a luxury retreat, but to do so in a way that respected the existing character of the place. Rather than placing a large structure on top of the land, the design tucks much of the building into the hillside so that the architecture feels like part of the terrain.
Designer: Ateno Architecture Studio
What makes Olen particularly interesting is the way the architecture is composed. Instead of focusing on striking building forms, the design is shaped through terraces, retaining walls, and subtle cuts into the earth. These elements create a series of spaces that unfold gradually across the cliff. The result is a composition that feels embedded in the landscape rather than imposed on it.
The resort steps down the slope in what the architects describe as an amphitheatre-like arrangement. As you move through the site, open terraces reveal sweeping views of the Aegean while more private rooms are tucked deeper into the hillside. The walls throughout the project are finished with textured render in warm, earthy tones, which helps the architecture blend naturally with the surrounding rock.
The layout of the resort is organised into three distinct parts called The Plane, The Line, and The Point. These areas are connected by a winding path that gently guides guests down the hillside. As you move lower on the site, the spaces become increasingly private.
At the very top sits The Plane, which acts as the social heart of the resort. A curved retaining wall wraps around a generous terrace that opens out toward the sea. Here, a sculptural pergola shaped like a leaf provides shade while a pool reflects the blue horizon beyond. Beneath this terrace, shared living areas and one bedroom are tucked into the hillside. Nearby, three additional bedrooms extend outward in simple cubic forms that frame the sea views.
The sweeping curve of the retaining wall is one of the most memorable features of the project. It creates a sense of enclosure and protection while still allowing the terrace to remain completely open to the landscape and the vast sea beyond.
Further down the hill is The Line, which contains two larger underground suites. These can operate as separate accommodations or be combined to form a larger living unit. Both open onto a shared terrace with a long, narrow infinity pool that stretches toward the horizon.
At the very bottom of the site lies The Point, the most secluded part of the resort. This independent guesthouse is framed by a curved stone wall and features a small circular pool. The exposed stone here provides a subtle contrast to the rendered walls used elsewhere across the project.
Inside the resort, the interiors are designed to feel calm and light despite the fact that many of the spaces sit within the hillside. Soft off-white tones reflect natural light throughout the rooms, while pale stone flooring connects indoor spaces with the terraces outside. This continuity helps blur the boundary between interior and exterior and keeps the atmosphere relaxed and airy.
In many ways, Olen feels less like a building placed on the landscape and more like an extension of it. The architecture follows the natural slope, opening itself gradually to the sea while remaining quietly anchored to the cliff. Guests move through terraces, shaded paths, and hidden rooms carved into the hillside, constantly aware of the surrounding horizon. The experience becomes less about staying in a hotel and more about inhabiting the landscape itself.

Sailors used to carry pocket telescopes. Birdwatchers still carry monoculars. Geologists carry hand lenses. What these instruments share, beyond the obvious optical function, is a deliberate relationship to information: you raise the tool when you choose to engage with it, and the world stays unmediated the rest of the time. That’s actually a pretty sophisticated UX philosophy, and it’s one the entire wearable tech industry has quietly abandoned in favor of always-on overlays, persistent notifications, and the assumption that more access to information is axiomatically better. Yuxuan Hua’s Lens concept is a Silver A’ Design Award winner that makes the counterargument in hardware form.
The concept is a detachable AR smartwatch that splits into two objects: a wrist-worn puck for everyday use and a handheld monocular for AR-enhanced outdoor exploration. The back face of the module houses a dual-lens optical array, a wide camera and LiDAR sensor tucked into a vertical pill recess, while the face doubles as a circular display that overlays navigation prompts, species identification, and star charts over a live feed when held up like a field scope. The band itself is Alpine-loop textile, the lug system simple enough to suggest the module can swap across band styles, and the whole thing comes in at 48mm wide and 68g. The rendering detail is strong: the detached module has the cold, machined look of a quality compass or a classic light meter, the kind of object that rewards handling.
Designer: Yuxuan Hua
Hua interviewed hikers, foragers, and stargazers and found three consistent frustrations: devices were too bulky and fragile for rugged environments, and frequent screen interactions broke the rhythm of being outside. The phone-as-field-guide pattern, pull it out, unlock, navigate to the app, wait for it to load, try to hold it steady while pointing at something, is a sequence of six interruptions where you actually wanted zero. Smart glasses solve the unlock problem but introduce the far more annoying problem of a permanent digital scrim between you and whatever you came outdoors to look at. The monocular is the thing you raise when you want to know something and lower when you don’t, which is precisely how attention works when you’re actually engaged with a landscape.
Most AR concept hardware reaches for science fiction: translucent surfaces, glowing elements, the visual grammar of a prop department. Lens reaches instead for the instrument drawer: the detached module has the proportions and material honesty of a quality compass housing or a Leica light meter, machined aluminum with visible fasteners and a lens array that looks like it belongs in an optician’s toolkit. It doesn’t look like the future. It looks like a very well-made tool, which is a significantly harder design target to hit.
Hua began developing Lens in 2021, during the pandemic, which is useful context. Lockdown-era design projects often reveal what designers actually miss about the physical world when it’s taken away, and what Lens mourns, obliquely, is uninterrupted attention. The whole concept is an argument that the best AR device for outdoor use is one that disappears when you’re not using it, one that earns its presence by staying out of the way until the moment it’s needed, then delivers exactly what the moment requires. Whether the engineering can catch up to that vision, packing AR projection, LiDAR, and a wide-FOV camera into a 68g coin of aluminum, is another question entirely. As a design proposition, it’s already done its job.

In most cases, wearable technology still announces itself as technology. Plastic shells, visible sensors, and utilitarian forms often make devices feel separate from the way people dress or present themselves. The AI Smart Gemstone Earpiece takes a different path. Instead of asking users to accommodate technology, it integrates technology into the language of personal adornment. Designed specifically with female users in mind, the earpiece approaches wireless audio as something that can live comfortably within fashion, jewelry, and everyday styling.
At first glance, the device does not read as a pair of earbuds at all. It looks remarkably similar to earrings. The form, scale, and surface detailing borrow directly from fine jewelry traditions rather than consumer electronics. Each earpiece is constructed from a copper acoustic chamber plated with eighteen karat white gold and inlaid with rare celestial gemstones, including meteorite fragments, tiger’s eye, opal, zircon, and obsidian. These materials introduce depth, color, and subtle light reflections that shift as the wearer moves. The result is a small object that sits on the ear like an accessory rather than a gadget.
Designer: Of Hunger
This shift in visual language matters. For many users, particularly women, accessories are an intentional part of how an outfit comes together. Traditional earbuds often interrupt that balance. They can feel out of place with formal clothing, evening wear, or carefully styled looks. The gemstone earpiece approaches the problem from the opposite direction. Instead of trying to hide technology, it celebrates it through jewelry craftsmanship. The gemstones and polished metal surfaces allow the device to complement clothing choices, hairstyles, and other jewelry pieces. Worn on the ear, it reads as something chosen for style as much as for function.
The experience begins even before the earbuds are worn. The charging case is designed to resemble a jewelry box rather than an electronics case. Opening it feels less like accessing a gadget and more like opening a pair of earrings. The earbuds rest neatly inside the case, echoing the presentation of high jewelry. This small gesture transforms a technical action such as charging into a familiar ritual. It reinforces the idea that the device belongs in the same category as personal accessories, objects that people care for and keep close.
Behind this jewelry-like presence lies a sophisticated technological system. The device operates on Qualcomm Snapdragon Sound architecture and uses thirteen millimeter dual magnet dynamic drivers paired with a HiFi grade composite diaphragm. This combination produces clear, balanced audio with a sense of spatial depth. The system also uses Open Wearable Stereo technology and air conduction sound transmission, allowing users to remain aware of their surroundings while listening. A three-dimensional sound field tuned by a professional acoustic laboratory with more than twenty-five years of experience ensures that the listening experience feels expansive and natural.
Interaction with the device remains simple and discreet. A touch-sensitive back panel on each earbud allows users to control playback or activate artificial intelligence features. The earbuds connect instantly through Bluetooth five point three when removed from the charging case. A spring-loaded mechanical structure allows the device to be worn with a single smooth motion, balancing comfort with stability. Each earbud weighs between twelve and fifteen grams, making it light enough for extended wear.
Artificial intelligence is deeply embedded in the experience. The system integrates ChatGPT and DeepSeek as its neural core, enabling functions that go far beyond music. Through the companion application, users can access real-time translation, intelligent conversation assistance, and meeting transcription. The application also allows users to customize acoustic equalization and connect to larger AI computing systems that power these features.
Battery performance supports everyday use without demanding constant attention. The earbuds offer approximately six to eight hours of listening time, while the charging case extends the total usage to around twenty hours. A ten-minute quick charge provides about one hour of playback, making the device practical for fast-paced daily routines.
The product itself emerged through a foresight-driven design process that explored how women might interact with wearable technology in an increasingly AI-supported world. The development team combined expertise in materials science, industrial design, acoustic engineering, and artificial intelligence. Several technical challenges had to be solved along the way, including integrating precious metals and gemstones with miniature electronics, creating an ergonomic wearing structure, and embedding acoustic modules alongside AI chips within a compact form.
Seen through a design lens, the AI Smart Gemstone Earpiece represents a subtle but meaningful shift in wearable technology. It treats personal devices not simply as tools but as objects that participate in how people dress, move, and present themselves. In doing so, it blurs the boundary between jewelry and electronics, suggesting a future where technology becomes something we wear with the same care and intention as the rest of our style.

In an unexpected twist, humans have taken some jobs back from AI. Embark Studios' CEO Patrick Söderlund recently told GamesIndustry.biz that the studio "re-recorded" some of the AI-generated voice lines in Arc Raiders with human voices, only after its successful launch in October.
"There is a quality difference," Söderlund told GamesIndustry.biz. "A real professional actor is better than AI; that's just how it is."
With Arc Raiders' player count peaking at nearly half a million users on Steam, the game's breakout success was still marred by its use of text-to-speech AI. While there was no generative AI used for the visuals of the extraction shooter, Embark Studios paid its actors for approval to license their voices for text-to-speech AI, according to Söderlund. Even though Söderlund said that the text-to-speech AI was reserved for lines "that aren't as essential to the immersion of the experience," many players weren't happy with this creative decision.
Responding to the criticism, Embark Studios is seemingly reversing course and relying more on its voice actors. Söderlund said that the studio pays its voice actors for their time in the recording booth and will "continue to bring many of them back as we carry on updating the game." However, it's important to note that Söderlund told GamesIndustry.biz that "some" of the AI-generated lines were replaced by voice actors, which could indicate that the studio isn't looking to completely ditch its text-to-speech AI anytime soon.
