Information delivered directly to your cornea

It seemed not long ago that Google introduced their wearable glasses with a HUD called Google Glass. This device generated a lot of excitement as it was a piece of equipment that was able to feed you real time intelligent information such as weather, locations, people information etc.

Some exciting information has now been released by researchers at Gent University’s Centre of Microsystems Technology. The University has announced that it has created an curved LCD that is able to be embedded into contact lens making it possible for information to be passed directly to the eyes without the need for glasses.

The technology behind the contact lens coming from Gent University allows them to use the entire surface of the lens as the LCD. This means that they can fit more information onto the unit making it more realistic for use.

This is an exciting development. I wonder if we can get a Clearly coupon that will allow us to purchase one of these cheap!
