a year or so ago I recommended the book rainbows
and by Bernard binge maybe he pronounces it been G
Bernard Benji burner binge in any case I talked about how
I think it's probably likely that some in the technology outlined in the book
which suggests that in the future we might have smart contact lenses
that can literally just project whether it's our emailer driving directions or
whatever it is
right onto our eyes Google is actually
now getting as one step closer to that Google has developed
a smart contact lens for diabetics
which would be able to monitor glucose levels without needing to
take a drop of blood by pricking their finger according to the Associated Press
the way this road work is there would be a very small transistor embedded in the
contact lens
any kid actually sample tears to measure
glucose levels and then let the individual no
whether they are high low et cetera this
according to researcher John Beuys has the potential to be a
real game-changer but the devil is in the details I wonder if it'll show you
like a Google ad before giving you
your glucose reading yeah are now
but obviously this is nothing like those ultra high tech
antibiotic eyes or whatever
it were were envisioning it's not but think about the accelerated rate
have development for this type of thing if we think that a hundred years ago
we had almost 90 but we would now consider modern medicine and now we're
looking at
smart contact lenses for diabetics is just amazing it is also interesting that
Google was even working on something like this
had basically your medical products not yeah I do
but but that's great I am glad it's a company like that is
is considering developing things like this
