Pentagon Game Display Contact Lenses
Pentagon blue sky science and technology division has requested contact lens that provide “first person shooter type video game” environments for the wearer.
Inventors from the University of Washington has already created a flexible contact lens embedded with microcircuits which are use to enhance vision. Future improvements will add wireless communication to and from the lens. The researchers hope to power the whole system using a combination of radio-frequency power and solar cells placed on the lens, Parviz (UW assistant professor of electrical engineering) said.
