  • Make it run on a steam engine then you got lot's of power

  • @casefc3s Haha, you wouldn't get any power. It's most likely microwatts.

  • A photo voltaic cell should produce enough energy for something like that. until this technology is available to the public, I will continue to use viewfinders pulled out of VHS camcorders.

  • why don't use the power from the brain?

  • Night vision?

  • If they can actually make this work and make it safe it would be a great tool for people like me. I have very poor low light vision and my eyes don't adjust as well to dark areas as others. If this could enhance low light vision then trying to driving at night or just getting around places like dark restaurant or movie theater wouldn't be so bad.

  • use lemons to power this bionic eye .. oh and make the lemon combustable

  • My vision is augmented.

  • I want a pair right now!!!

  • wooooo now i can no scope in real life
