digital camera contact lens

It seems that every morning I wake up with a crazy new camera idea. I was lying in bed looking at the texture of my pillow when I noticed the lints sticking up out of it, like a lint forest. At that moment, I wished I had a digital camera built into my eye, so that I can snap a picture of it.

That led me to think about the possibility of a contact lens with a built-in digital camera. With all these advancements in contact lens technology lates, such as one permanently embedded in the eye, potential use seems to be paramount.

Digital camera contact lens . . . Possible?

I had a thought very much like that! What about a digital video camera?

Christine, it seems like your wish is getting closer to coming true. I just read a news story today about a Deja View Camwear Model 100 that can be attached to a pair of glasses. The camera records and caches the last 30 seconds of video. When something interesting occurs, a push of a button stores the 30 second cache onto a Secure Digital media card . . .

Yup, Same here thought about a digital camera in the eye for awhile now, havent heard anything about it yet but sounds like we are getting closer and closer everyday to that reality. Sounds like a Japanese company has made a microchip the size of a grain of sand.

nanotechnological advances certainly indicate the possibility of these devices

The idea of camera contact lenses is mentioned in the book series: Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer

does anyone know if a camera or video camera contact lense is getting close to being produced if it already is? Seems like an awesome idea.

if this happens we'll have a mechanism as mentioned in the movie Strange Days [1995] :-SQUID .

there is an idea there. but keep on with that and make attempts and not possibilities happen!

on a side note: Watching the Movie "I Spy" w/ Owen Wilson and Eddie Murphy with their
"live feed camcorder lens with a watch receiver to activate and store it...
Sort of like that or something

they have come up with the ability to start your car with a watch
why not be able to record video and store it, Huh?

please send all regards or comments to my Email Red_Dragon_369@hotmail.com

Thank you!

contact-lens cameras could probably use nanotechnolgy.it could be powered by the light(photovoltaically?) entering the eye itself and then transmit the images to a memory dev. in your pocket.
