The Contact Lens of the future, might contain the display

Here comes a company from California, very secretly working hard for five years and has finally revealed the plans and their thoughts for world’s first truly smart contact lens. Please don’t get too excited but it be excited at the same time as it is in the research and development phase, but who knows with this kind of hard work going, we might see a actual product on the shelves in coming years.

The product (well, prototype as of now) is called Mojo Vision is everything around “invisible computing.” The company, has founders who all are the exes of industry leaders such as Apple, Google, Amazon, and Microsoft, wants to reduce the dependence on screens. Instead of taking out one’s smartphone to check why it hummed in a discussion, look to the side of your eye to actuate an interface that will advise you in a brief moment.

Various players have tried their hands in smart lenses category and for sure making smart contact lenses is a herculean task till now, Verily, the subsidiary of Alphabet is looking to redesign its Smart Lens program after facing some difficulties. One has to have the particular size of sensors for particular sizes. The power is also required to make all the tech work and not to forget about the display and image sensor, all of this in a piece of lens that one will wear under one’s eyelid. Various type of sensors includes custom wireless radios and motion sensors especially for image stabilization and eye tracking.

Mojo Vision’s employees claims that this is the smallest and the densest display ever made, but putting all the required sensors in the lens is yet to be achieved. The difference between all the earlier such eye wears such as Google Glass and Focals, is that this has the display integrated into the contact lens.

Mojo Vision has a decent methodology with their item as they are zeroing in on buyers and organizations, yet incredibly, they are zeroing in on individuals who are outwardly weakened or have low vision or vision helpless enough that glasses can’t fix. The entirety of this is on the grounds that, every single contact focal point needs to get leeway from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the US. Interestingly, Mojo Vision has been allowed the Breakthrough Device Designation, which gives organizations a thumbs up to quick track advancement, at that point appraisal, and afterward audit the items that may assist different individuals with destructive or could assist individuals with hazardous or hindering conditions while saving the legal principles for premarket endorsement. You won’t see any drastically new visual experience but you need to just look into the corner of your eye and icons will popup. Be it calendar, notifications, weather, music playback and what not, every icon is there. To get the details from each app icon, all you need to do is give a stare to the arrow which is just next to the icons. At first it will seem a bit tough to interact but, in a while, you will get used to the interface and it is pretty simple to use.

The most amazing app on it would be Speech. With only your eyes, you can open a pre written speech, and read it while facing the audience, pretty amazing right. Teleprompters in big events will be of no use then if it becomes a commercial success.
