An interesting read in the Metro yesterday! It seems there’s no end in sight for the wonders of science and technology! (See what we did there?) For according to researchers in the US and Finland, we may soon receive emails and texts right before our very eyes. Wearers of specially developed contact lenses designed for this purpose will receive hands-free ‘info vision’ streamed across their field of vision. Think rolling news streamed along the bottom of a TV screen during a news report. Currently the contact lenses only contain one pixel, but researchers are working to improve this, so eventually they might also be used for gaming, navigation, and the monitoring of glucose and lactate levels within the users body, helpful perhaps for those with diabetes or certain food intolerances. If you aspire to be the next terminator sent from the future to destroy mankind, it could come in useful! However f you need an excuse for still not responding to that e-mail, you might just come unstuck!
