The team doing the tests didn’t reveal the text displayed to him but he was able to read it. Perkins tested various Mojo Lens app demos with the contact lenses including reading text from a teleprompter app that displayed tiny text that floated on a display in front of the eye and using his eye gaze to scroll the text while still being able to see the people who were around him. Mojo Vision has been working on the smart contact lens for several years and they have now reached a stage of development where the contact lenses can be worn in the eye internally and be tested although Perkins referred to the experience of using them as akin to a “baby learning to walk.” It is a tough ask but the company is walking the talk and already has a prototype. But here we are, in 2022, and the company is doing a demo of its high-tech device.ĭeveloping smart contact lenses entails packing in all the computing hardware needed to generate visual augmentations inside a tiny lens that you insert inside your eye. When the company first floated the idea of a smart contact lens, it sounded like something straight out of a futuristic science fiction film. Mojo Vision has begun in-eye tests for its smart contact lenses and the testing was done by none other than the company’s CEO Drew Perkins.Īccording to a CNETreport, the company’s CEO wore a functioning smart contact lens in his eye and even used the device for about an hour.
