The surface of your eyes might be the computer screen of the future. You scroll through content by learned movement of your eyes.
A glance to the left. A flick to the right. As my eyes flitted around the room, I moved through a virtual interface only visible to me—scrolling through a calendar, looking up commute times home, and even controlling music playback. It’s all I theoretically need to do to use Mojo Lens, a smart contact lens coming from a company called Mojo Vision.
The California-based company, which has been quiet about what it’s been working on for five years, has finally shared its plan for the world’s “first true smart contact lens.”
If you’re looking straight ahead while wearing the lens, you won’t see anything visually disrupting. But peek to a corner in any direction and you’ll see icons pop up, ranging from a calendar, weather, notifications, music playback, and more. Stare at the arrow next to these icons to expand them even further to see more details—like a three-day forecast, for example—or all your calendar events for the day. It took me about a minute to figure out how to navigate the interface; it could all change at any moment, but it’s promising to see just how simple it is to use.
One of my favorite demo apps is Speech. Using only my eyes, I opened a prewritten speech, scrolled through it, and read it aloud. This app alone opens up a myriad of possibilities. Imagine sitting in a taped interview but, instead of looking at notes, you can pull up your next question with a flick of your eye without having to look down. Or if you’re filming a video, you may not need to shoot multiple takes because the script is in the dead center of your eye. Who needs teleprompters?

It’ll finally take off when the porn industry figures how to use it.

I’d like one built onto my belt buckle. That way I can be assured it’s driving me nuts….
No.
Just put your eyes right up to the computer screen. Go ahead, do it. Isn’t that amazing!
@MJA, exact same response in my eyes, No!

Wondering how the democrats will write that distracted driving bill. And, how it will be enforced
I won’t even put Visine in my eyes, a computer screen, no way.

But I did look to the left officer. My facebook page didn’t say nothing about that car!
Wear shades and the boss will never know you are watching porn.
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex.
That anime is a cyberpunk crime thriller- and it has that sort of technology.
…I wonder how long it’ll take for people to attempt to put their own brains inside casing so that they can swap out onto a new body? 🤔
Don’t Borg me bro.
