One-eyed man creates prosthetic ‘surveillance’ eye

by Mark on March 7, 2009

It’s called, appropriately the eyeborg project and it is fascinating.  Rob Spence, a 36-year-old film maker from Canada, finally had his eye surgically removed some 13 years ago – and a further 13 years after the organ was badly damaged in a shotgun accident.  However, he and a team of ocularists, inventors and engineering specialists are now working on the Eyeborg Project – the development of a prosthetic eye that captures and transmits video.

Be aware there are some scenes of surgery in this video.
