  • Publication number: 20070238921
    Abstract: A pill shaped device for in vivo imaging of tissues of the digestive system. The capsule imaging device gathers images of tissues of the gastro-intestinal tract that have been tagged by fluorescent dye. The light source of the device causes the fluorescent dye tagging the tissues to emit light images that are recorded by the sensor in the device and then transmitted to a remote system for processing.

  • Patent number: 5682210
    Abstract: A contact lens video display system is described which provides a low power, light weight, fully immersive three dimensional visual environment for the wearer. A visual display along with supporting circuitry, battery, and an antenna is formed into a contact lens. The contact lenses are worn on the eyes covering the field of view. Video data is sent to the lens display device from an eyeglass device holding transmitting antenna. The eyeglasses also house eye movement sensors and a backlight for the lens display. The glasses are connected to a data source such as a computer which sends video data to the antenna in the glasses. Furthermore, the eye movement sensors in the glasses send signals to the computer which enables the computer to alter the displayed images in reaction to eye movements and eyelid blinks. The contact lens display device can be connected to any source of video data, thus also enabling the viewing of television, movies, and so on.
