Robotic Contact Lens
October 29, 2019 | Terry Sharrer
Muscles that control eye movement have an electrical output—or more precisely, an electro-oculographic signal. With that in mind, engineers at the University of California at San Diego designed a contract lens from polymers with five imbedded electrodes. As a wearer blinks twice, the electrical impulse alters the shape of the lens changing the depth of field. In effect, this is a contact lens that can “zoom in.” MORE
