At the age of 13, Rob Spence injured an eye in a shotgun accident. Over the years his eye deteriorated and three years ago he it removed and replacted with a prosthetic one. The 36-year old Canadian filmmaker, with the help of unemployed engineer, Kosta Grammatis, plans to make history with The Eyeborg Project – embedding a video camera and a transmitter in Spence’s prosthetic eye.
Once implemented, Spence will become a lifecaster, recording the world as he sees it. The device won’t connect to his brain so he won’t be a bionic man; it’ll be more like “little brother,” someone who’s watching and recording every move of those in his field of vision.
Add in some more jiggery-pokery, and Spence will be able to see through clothing and cheat at card games ;)
