Monocle HUD to Help Cyborgs

US firm Microvision has developed a system that projects lasers onto the retina, allowing users to view images on top of their normal field of vision.

Although the idea is nothing new, the technology looks like it has advanced significantly. Combine this with the wearable computing research that's been done at MIT and other places and you have an entirely new way of experiencing the world, one that Dr. Mann has lived for almost 30 years.
