Can Nanotechnology Make Everyday Sunglasses and Clothing Smarter Without Changing How They Look?

Nanotechnology — the manipulation of materials at an extremely small scale — has quietly entered the closet and the eyewear case. From ultrathin lens coatings that cut glare and resist scratches to fabric finishes that repel stains and odors, tiny engineered structures are delivering practical benefits in ways that are largely invisible to users. As
