Time travel goggles, no really!

New Scientist
Next time you're stuck in a never-ending meeting, speed up time - or at least your perception of it - by wearing a pair of glasses that shift your vision to the right.

Prismatic glasses that adjust vision 10 degrees to the left experience just the opposite effect, slowing perception of time, claims a new study recently published online in Psychological Science.

In the study, volunteers first wore prismatic lenses while they pointed to a pen in their periphery over and over again. This prompted their brains to adjust accordingly, shifting their world view to the right or left - the opposite direction of the lens shift.
