Tech: Contact lenses with imprinted circuits

[dracodraconis]

Engineers at the University of Washington have developed a "...flexible, biologically safe contact lens with embedded circuits and lights." according to EurkAlert!. They hope to eventually develop heads-up displays that can be worn as contact lenses. Anyone who has read the early issues of Warren Ellis's "Doctor Sleepless" will recognize the technology; not surprising, given this article was found on his grinding.be site. They hope to power/control it using a combination of RF and solar power.
