First ive heard of this project. but it leaves me wondering.. do I take these 'vr-frames' to my eye doctor and have them put lenses in? I had enough problems trying to get new lenses for existing frames.
If so, I think there will be many people who will be disappointed when their Dr says they cant (Although I hope not).
I also wear glasses -- and cant get contacts (not for lack of trying), so im anxious to see where this goes
I wonder...could this be handled in software? Upload your prescription details and let the software adjust the rendering accordingly? It is a virtual image after all.
this has the same problem of trying to an out of focus photograph using only software -- it wont work.
Most "bad" eyesight is caused by the lens on your eye focusing the incoming light on the wrong place in your retina, so its perceived as blurry. Eyeglasses and contacts work by refocusing the incoming light into the correct spot on your retina so things are clear.
