Researchers See Retina Display, Raise Them A Cornea Display
The idea of information being presented directly to your eyes, be it by glasses, contacts, distant lasers, or brain implants, has existed for decades. But like so many sci-fi concepts, the engineering is slightly more difficult than the idea work. While we've seen lots of work in artificial eyes, head-mounted displays, and cortical implants, the on-eye display has remained elusive.Progress is being made, though. Researchers at the University of Washington and Aalto University in Finland have successfully created a simple wireless contact lens display and tested it on a live eye — a proof of concept that may presage more sophisticated devices. People wonder what kind of display comes after the touchscreen; it may be something like this.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/PpQNO1J_LxA/
