  • Wow! Good news! But I just have one question in my mind right now. Does this device also can see your visual imaginations or if a person is asleep dreaming then can it see and record your dreams? Or it only shows what is seen in the device's camera? I have read somewhere that this device is different from an "implant" device that they put inside your eyes to let the blind see.
