Smart contact lenses with built-in augmented reality (AR) displays to provide information without the need for other screens could soon become a feature of daily life. US-based Mojo Vision, whose aim is to offer “invisible computing,” has teamed up with Japanese contact lens manufacturer Menicon Co to develop the product.
“At the heart of Mojo Lens is the smallest and densest dynamic display ever built. Our 14KPPI display is a microLED array about the size of a grain of sand that projects text, photos and video content onto your retina.”
“When you take your pair of lenses out at night, you’ll recharge and clean them in their case overnight, so they are ready to wear the next day. We believe that someday all eyewear will become smart and that the people that choose contact lenses today will want the benefits of a product like Mojo Lens.”
