  • This speaker was so bad I'm not sure if I should praise this or bury it.

    At the end of the video, I know about as much as I did going in.

    In what type of situation does a device like this apply? There are many types of blindness.

    What does this device actually do? She mentioned it working conjointly with the organic transcoders, yet I see no photosensoreal capability in it, so what exactly is capturing the video input?

    This presentation should've been more carefully prepared.

  • Hahaha! You have to love how she points out "Well when he can see, he'll be able to realize how silly he looks". Seriously though, this is the greatest, most impressive thing I've seen in a while!

  • Unconvincing. How do they know that the animal implant produces that sharp beautiful baby face??? They apparently measured the signal and concluded "it looks good!"

    If it works, then get a VIDEO of the animal recognizing a sign leading to food(and differentiating from a very similar sign that leads to bad tasting junk.)

  • Absolutely fascinating.  Sheila is cool.

  • I love this.. fantastic

  • dis shit be amazin

  • i want to improve my own view resolution...

  • HISTORIC BREAKTHROUGH! NOBEL PRIZE CANDIDATE!

  • This is the kind of video that should have millions of views, not 1300!

  • @platinummediauk I think this one has not because its the the whole talk this is just a QA after, this is the first part. Search "Sheila Nirenberg: A prosthetic eye to treat blindness " I would have put the link but it errored when i added it. enjoy. :)

  • I guess in some year we'll be seeing prosthetic eyes from Canon, Nikon or Fujifilm. Wink your eye and save your photos to your cell phone. Also it would be great to have Augmented Reality features, it's over nine-thousaaaaand!

  • Wow this just blew my mind....

  • this is fucking unbelievable! I love this shit, they should get a nobel for this....I mean really ...

  • @YoLninYo

    Too bad the nobel prizes have turned from a prestigious, hard to get award to a politicized joke.

  • @Gezab couldn't agree more!

  • why can't this be used to link up severed spinal cords for example? no re-encoding needed for that ... is there?

  • I was blessed to be in the audience when Sheila Nirenberg spoke! We all sat in silence as she unveiled her light that will luminate the lives of those who live in the dark. She will win the Nobel Prize for her discovery!

  • Future of improved vision, u can embed a 20 MegaPixel zoom lens to your eyes.

  • @shinerajan With HDMI input.

  • @orka16605 and with all possible wavelengths of light to see !
