Patent Images
1. A device comprising:
- a contact lens configured to render one or more portions of one or more predetermined images to a wearer of the contact lens, the contact lens comprising;
an electro-active prism configured to dynamically adjustably steer light toward one or more predetermined locations on a retina of the wearer to form, on the retina, a spot that moves in a predetermined pattern, the electro-active prism configured to move the spot on the retina at a speed faster than a speed at which the retina can send images of a single spot to the brain of the wearer, the moving spot defining the one or more portions of the one or more predetermined images; and
a controller configured to;
dynamically control steering of the light by the electro-active prism.

16. A method comprising:
via an electro-active prism, scanning light across one or more predetermined and adjustable regions of a retina of a wearer of a contact lens at a speed faster than a speed at which the retina can send images of a single spot to the brain of the wearer, to generate a detectable image on the one or more predetermined and adjustable regions of the retina, the light generated by the contact lens, the electro-active prism comprised by the contact lens. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
