SARATOGA — Augmented reality firm Mojo Vision is a step closer to rolling out a smart contact lens prototype that creates a digital display within a user’s own field of vision.Livermore Residents Seek Answers From PG&E After Power Surge Damages Electronics In Over 500 Homes“We’re inventing the next generation of computing,” said Steve Sinclair, the senior vice president of product and marketing at Mojo Vision.
It could work for daily tasks like exercising or bring you information while you’re trying to catch your flight, like your flight number and seat.Getting the Saratoga-based firm’s prototype off the ground has been more than six years in the making. Built into the lenses are motion sensors, battery power and wireless radio to stream content to your eyes.
The next step is testing the lens in the eyes of people within the company. And then, Sinclair says they hope to test them in a group like athletes. “If you’re running, if you’re cycling, if you’re skiing, having information in your eye, not looking down at a screen, is really important,” he said.“They can use augmented-reality overlays like edge detections, like contrast enhancements, zooming in and out on texts,” he said.Sinclair said the hope is that in the next few years they’ll be available for someone to get prescribed by their optometrist. But for now, we get a peek into what the future may look like.
