"Sight", a short Israeli film on augmented reality that illustrates the progress of work on "in" eye displays.
This is a futuristic short film by Eran mai-raz and Daniel Lazo for their graduation project from the Bezaleal academy of arts.
It shows a moment in a man's life in the "near future". This film goes around the web and creates a nice buzz! The main character uses the famous augmented reality lenses and shows us multiple uses.
A team of Finnish and American researchers, led by the University of Washington Babak Praviz, has pioneered a wireless display device integrated into contact lenses.
Admittedly, we are not yet reading e-mails or playing Quake, staring into space: the prototype system, tested on rabbits before moving on to tests on humans, offers only a single pixel resolution for the moment. For the record, this resolution is 153,000 times lower than the average smartphone display and 2,073,600 times lower than that of a Full HD - 1920×1080 - TV screen.
The team is currently working on the development of a multi-pixel display with micro Fresnel lenses to obtain more detailed images on the retina. It will take a little more time before it is commercialized.
