Contact lenses that help enhance normal vision with megapixel 3D panoramic images are being designed by scientists using military funding.

For those who do not want to rely on contact lenses, future versions could involve lenses directly implanted within the eye, researchers added.

Over the decades, the video displays that everyone from fighter pilots to the general public use have grown increasingly complex. One possibility for advanced displays is a virtual reality (VR) system that replaces our view of the real world with computer-generated vistas. Another idea consists of augmented reality (AR) displays that overlay computer-generated images over real-world environments. However, these

The DOD is working on some cool new technology to help with soldiers performing ISR or Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance. These activities require special equipment that can come as a bit of a hassle at times.

DARPA or the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is working on technology that can be applied to wearable lenses to fit in the eye much like a contact lens. The lenses would contain the technology to display a full color HUD that can then display full color digital images; the tech would be used to help heighten the situational awareness of the user.

Washington, Feb 4 (ANI): Contact lenses, which are being designed by scientists using military funding, help enhance normal vision with megapixel 3D panoramic images.

The researchers added that for those who do not want to rely on contact lenses, future versions could involve lenses directly implanted within the eye.

Now, researchers from Washington-based company Innovega, funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and the National Science Foundation, are developing novel contact lenses that can help view tiny full-colour megapixel displays.

“Over the past months, we have demonstrated contact lens-enabled eyewear for mobile devices, including smart phones, portable game devices and media
