Just - just eyes. Just genetic design. Just eyes. Sun, 18 Feb 2007 19:35:12 +0000 http://themoderatevoice.com/science/technology/bionic-eye-available-within-two-years/#comment-53670 [...] Researchers have reportedly developed an electronic eye suitable for implantation in blind people. Comprised of sixteen light-detecting electrodes, currently allows the drawing of distinctions between light and dark, the detection of motion, and the ability to classfy large objects. The next revision will contain 60 electrodes, and it is expected that within five years there will be artificial eyes with as many as a 1000, allowing face recognition.
