 Help the blind see with VR, AR and Smart Contact Lenses

Wareable has a fascinating feature on how the visually-impaired can find their sight changed by tech.

A handful of companies are currently working on specific ways to use VR and AR to help the visually impaired and partially sighted to see. In fact, New York-based RaayonNova is already building what many considered the "end game" to all of this: smart contact lenses. "There are a number of issues with the existing technologies; they are not discreet," says Aleksandr Shtukater, the founder of RaayonNova. "They're visible to others and the system's control is driven by gestures."

Each lens has an embedded display directly over the eye's cornea, and would include features to help the visually impaired, such an embedded display that uses colour to direct the wearer, or to help magnify street signs or warn the person when they're near danger."

Smart Contact Lens

  RaayonNova presenting their unique and futuristic technology of AR & VR enabled Smart Contact Lens tech These are just some of the mindboggling ideas being developed in tech right now, and the hardware holding all the promise is the simple contact lense. One of the companies at the forefront of the innovation, RaayonNova, is set to address next week’s Wearable Europe conference in Berlin. The conference is a showcase of advancements in wearable technology, one of the biggest trends in tech today. RaayonNova currently holds patents for the 'smart contact lenses' concept; devices it says could be controlled by eye movements. It’s not the only company vying for position in this area, however; big tech firms like Samsung and Google are also among companies chasing the tech and filing patents for similar bionic lenses. Google – which famously brought the concept of tiny screens in our eyes to worldwide attention with Google Glass in 2013 - is currently in the process of develo...

  Contact lenses have up to now been relatively low-tech devices that enable wearers to replace bulky, sometimes unattractive glasses. But RaayonNova founder and CEO Aleksandr Shtukater is developing advanced contact lens technology he expects will morph into an augmented and virtual reality platform that can potentially replace existing devices such as smartphones and tablets to perform actions. Under development for several years, the technology creates a “smart” lens with an embedded display that is placed directly over the eye’s cornea. By projecting information directly into the eye’s retina, the technology would enable users to make gesture-based eye movements to initiate responses. “We want to make use of natural eye movement, by determining the shift in focusing,” Shtukater explained to  FierceElectronics  in an interview earlier this week. Shtukater explained that the patented technology could conceivably in the long run replace smartphones and other input device...
