Scientists at the University of Washington are working on a new breed of contact lenses with embedded LEDs which allow information to be displayed to the wearer. This human machine interface will use custom-built transparent circuitry in a polymer lens that is roughly 1.2 millimeters in diameter.
The technology still faces a few hurdles (the need for custom parts, physical constraints, and user safety) but has already proven itself with single pixel visual cues for both gamers and the hearing impaired.
