The Bionic Eye . . . Contact Lens?
Here we have the first steps to getting me the corrective lens I need for my eyes. You know, what with my mild astigmatism and myopia, with a distinct lack of zoom and telephoto capability, and generally no useful bandwidth outside the normal visible spectrum.
They are talking about putting the display right on your eyeball. Augmented reality here we come. Surgical microscopes and instrument panels suddenly become anachronistic. Big-screen TV? You thought IMAX 3D was kick@ss?
Okay, so they won't be offering high-resolution displays with built-in optics on corrective lenses until I'm old enough not to care anymore, but still this is pretty neat.
