The days of paper shopping lists are nearing an end, and it might not be smartphones that do them in. Smart contact lenses sound like science fiction, but Amazon has partnered with a company to use them to augment the experience of something not particularly science fictiony: grocery shopping.
Mojo Vision teams with Amazon to demonstrate how a feature like Alexa Shopping list might be utilized on a pair of smart contact lenses.
People probably wouldn’t forget something at the store if they taped a grocery list to their eyeballs, not that I’m recommending that. But a new prototype from smart contact lens maker Mojo would do something pretty similar.
Mojo Vision's device design includes many firsts and now the prototype is good enough to be trialed. Is the future already here?
