    Science AR contact lens wins CES’ Last Gadget Standing competition

    The eyes really do tell all.


    Or, at least a whole lot when using the world’s first augmented reality contact lenses.

    The Mojo Vision Lens, which projects text, image and video information overlays onto your field of vision, captured the Last Gadget Standing prize Tuesday evening at CES 2021.

    Its victory in the best new gadget competition was easy to see coming: Online votes tallied during a real-time livestream, rather than the traditional audience vote-by-applause, carried Mojo Vision to an overwhelming win at the virtual trade show.

    Mojo Lens fits like a regular contact lens and uses motion sensor technology to follow your eyes. The lenses offer useful information like weather forecasts, restaurant reviews or turn-by-turn directions, according to Mojo Vision, a Saratoga, California-based startup.

    “I hope that five, 10 years from now you’re all wearing Mojo Vision Lens and all having superpowers, and standing out and succeeding in the world,” CEO Drew Perkins told the virtual audience while accepting the award.

    Combine that with the facial recognition database and big brother just went into overdrive.
    I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.

    You look at what you want to shoot, blink twice to lock in the setting, then fire. 100% accurate.
