Comments on: A TV in your contact lenses? What?

Futurists are predicting that within 10 years, we'll have TVs perched on our eyeballs. Is this a good thing? Ian Pearson also believes that we'll have a curious kind of digital tattoo.

I'm a futurist! My predictions are worthless! Woo!

[Super2online]

Can we refrain from including photos that are really hard on the eyes please!

[Norseman]

Contact TV sounds great--except for those damn coax cables you have to connect to each eye.

[acarswell]

It'll be hdmi. Not so bad.

[Chapmaniac]

10 years is so far off on this prediction it isn't even funny.
I also can't believe there is still a paycheck for these people who call themselves "futurists."

[Wak_Em]

I wonder if they will be true flat panel screens or the ancient vacuum tube technology? Will they be digital compliant or will I need to carry around a converter box?

[ClarkWells]

But where would we put the DTV box?

What's with the awful and disgusting picture? Not appropriate for a professional news posting.

Wow...when I saw the picture in this article...I just about died. This is an absolute joke and I cannot believe that CNET News would include this picture.

That would make 3D viewing very easy, and even enable 3D virtual reality.

Hopefully when everyone is off buying eyeball TV's, big screen LCD's will drop to a decent price. And Blu Ray will be merely expensive rather than absurd.

I'm into foot eyeball massages too, its futuristic!

[Morisot]

Heck, I'd like a good 13 inch flat screen DTV with a good tuner for the kitchen first!

Keanu Reeves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm straight yet he is still sexy

I thought about those at least 6 years ago. How do you get paid for this stuff?

[jpmccloud01]

Oh my god, so instead of people not paying attention to there driving because of cell phone use and almost or actually crashing there cars, we will have to worry that a game is on and while looking like there paying attention to the road, they kill someone due to there contact lens's and a touch down. that's the bad side. the other is great if you are traveling and want the movie you want to see when you want or playing full in your face games without getting up to set the game system that's way excellent. How often though will you need to clean the lenses?

Shucks, too bad we don't have that yet. Even a black and white version will do. Our new President can really use that technology. Don't they use the same technology in teleprompters? With teleprompters, text use only black and white display and are produced as a mirror-image. Then they 're projected against a glass to reverse the mirror-image so that the user can read it. With this Contact-Lens TV, Obama can do away with all that and look more intelligent. Our President will defintiely enhance his image, power and glory as a ruler to the entire world! Yeah!

Oh, great. Now i can lose an entire television in my eye!

[seasonwind]

Well, That's really good. I would like to have one if they are going to sell it. I will find some good deals on http://www.lenscompare.com
