Mojo Vision<\/a> is revealing a smart contact lens with a tiny built-in display that lets you view augmented reality images on a screen sitting right in front of your eyeballs. It\u2019s an achievement that just makes me say, \u201cWow. This is the future!\u201d<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t think we would really get to see this kind of technology in 2020, as it still seems like something out of science fiction. Steve Sinclair, senior vice president of marketing at Mojo Vision<\/a>, calls it Invisible Computing, a platform that overlays information on what you see in the real world \u2014 without requiring you to wear a huge gadget on your head.<\/p>\n

Back in May, Sinclair showed me<\/a> a screen that could display 14,000 pixels per inch, making it the smallest and densest dynamic display ever made. I saw a monochrome picture of Albert Einstein sticking his tongue out, but I still wondered why this display had enabled the company to raise $108 million in funding.<\/p>\n
