There is a prototype of a smart contact lens that can be worn in your eye.
Drew Perkins says he wears the prototype contact in his left eye for an hour at a time. Until now, the prototype lens had to be held up in front of the eye, but that is no longer the case.
Perkins said that they had taken the first step. It is very exciting.
According to a company post published last week, Mojo Vision is hoping to integrate an entire "eye-basedUI" into an augmented reality system that would provide discreet access to the information you need throughout your day.
It could be used to track your workout or show you directions.
According to Perkins, the contact has the world's smallest and densest display ever created for dynamic content with a MicroLED screen that's less than half a millimeter in diameter.
Perkins needs a processor pack around his neck to act as a data relay between the computer and lens.
The project is still a long way from being a consumer product, but the CEO thinks the early prototype is a breakthrough for the company.
He wrote that seeing the future made him lose his mind. This is a major step towards the goal of improving the lives of millions of people.
The in-eye testing of the smart contact lens is underway.
A working prototype of an augmented reality contact lens has been unveiled by a startup.
