After Christmas lunch with all the trimmings and, perhaps, a couple of glasses of port, it is inevitable that sitting down in front of the television will result in an unintended nap. 吃完备有各种配菜的圣诞午餐，或许餐后再来几杯葡萄酒，坐下来看看电视，这时候难免会不知不觉打起盹来。 But enjoying a snooze on Christmas Day will no longer mean missing your favourite programme thanks to a wristwatch-style device that will record it for you when you fall asleep. 不过，好在有了新型腕带设备，圣诞节打个盹儿不再意味着错过你最喜欢的节目，因为它会在你睡着时录下错过的节目。 The gadget, which tracks the wearer’s pulse to detect when they are asleep and takes over the remote to pause or record programmes, was invented by Ryan Oliver, 15, and Jonathan Kingsley, 14. 该腕带由15岁的赖安·奥利弗和14岁的乔纳森·金斯利（Jonathan Kingsle）共同发明。它可以监测佩戴者的脉搏，他们睡着时会控制遥控器将节目暂停或录下来。 The teenagers’ device, the KipstR, has been taken up by Virgin Media to work via Wi-Fi with its TiVo television boxes. 维珍传媒公司已启用这款青少年设计的KipstR腕带，让它在Wi-Fi环境下遥控该公司的Tivo电视盒。 The boys, both students at the Manchester Creative Studio, were approached by Virgin Media when presenting their device at a start-up event. |
