Well, Ellis, something's already been around for a long time and has been used successfully to take care of that problem... ever heard of a HEADLAMP? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohgeez.gif

Headlamps have the added benefit of not blinding you when you're looking over your hands to see what you're doing! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/twakfl.gif

I agree with the headlamp comment; however, he does have a point in that often your hand can be in one spot and your head can't be pointed that way, but your eyes can. I think that was the intent of the young girl who invented the screwdriver or nutdriver that had a built-in light.

Generally, though, the headlamp wins, I think, since the glare of the bulbs would not overwhelm your eyes and reduce your ability to see outside of the range of the glove.

Geez, anything can be "art" now. I remember a saying of Red Green (a canadian comedian): "If I can do it, it is not art".

I also remember in "Red Planet" a similar glove being part of the spacesuits worn by the actors in that movie. Only they had leds in them and looked a lot cooler! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
