Google Smart Contact Lenses
Remember when Google Glass was created? Well know Google has gone above and beyond with their newest invention of a “smart contact lens.” This new smart contact lens contains an integrated camera, which allows the contact lens to follow your gaze giving you basically a bionic eye.
The smart contact lens is made so that the camera is be extremely small and sits on the outside edge of the lens so that there would be no distraction. With the camera in your lens it can naturally follow your gaze, spot hazards before your brain does, night-vision, and even facial recognition. This could also be a huge development for the blind and people who are visually impaired.
Could you imagine taking a picture with your contacts and then having it show up on your smart phone? Or having the ability to be warned about oncoming traffic? Or even being able to scan faces using the facial recognition? These are just some of the amazing features that these Google smart contact lenses offer.
Now these smart contact lenses are not on the market just yet but in the major stages of development. Google is still trying to work out some of the kinks such as battery power and the size/aesthetics of the lenses. This could be revolutionary in not only the technology world but for the world of doctors and their patients who suffer from vision problems and even patients with diabetes!
