The Light-Field Stereoscope: Wearable Contact Lenses Capturing 3D Scenes based on Eye Movement Detection
Vijay A. Kanade
Abstract: Inspired by 'The Google Glass', this paper shows a method of capturing 3D images/videos by using a wearable contact lens based on eye movement detection. The paper puts light on the methods that can be used to track and detect eye movement (i. e. blinks or winks) through sensors installed on the contacts for capturing picturesque 3D scenes. The presented paper embeds Light-Field technology in the lens's hardware for enabling enhanced photographic imaging of various scenes. The images captured by the wearable contact lens are wirelessly shared with the nearby user device like cell phone, tablet, desktop, etc. through an antenna, as the entire unit of the lens & smartphone, etc. forms a network of IoT (Internet of Things) devices. These captured images are further processed to give a 3D effect to the static set of photos/scenes.
