Tailored Displays to Compensate for Visual Aberrations Improve your vision with computer generated glasses

I've been thinking lately and wondering too... Why couldn't a Wearable Computer - Head Set be made, which also improves your Vision? I like the Idea of a Wearable Computer. But, I also have to wear Reading Glasses to be able to Read on the Computer and anything in Print too. I don't technically need Glasses. So my Eye Tests say... But, I have had to wear my Dollar Store Glasses for over 10 years now. I was a bit surprised to learn. That Google Glass, has no such feature or no mention of this coming soon, either. And I have been following these types of Projects for the last several years. The one's that came out long before Goggles Glass (see links at the bottom of this post). I have seen some pretty cool Wearable Computers, with Head Mounted Displays, made form a Pair of Sun Glasses and such. But, none with Vision Correction, built in. But, this Project, looks like it cold do just what I have been Dreaming of. Check it out...

Tailored Displays to Compensate for Visual Aberration

Take Your Glasses Off and See

Our new display uses measurements of refractive errors (see also NETRA) and cataract maps (see also CATRA) to free the viewer from needing wearable optical corrections when looking at displays. It supports nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, presbyopia (reading glasses), coma, keratoconus, other higher-order aberrations and any type of cataracts. Knowledge of the eye conditions allows traditional displays go beyond an individual's visual acuity, presenting images that are in focus even without wearing corrective eyeglasses. The hardware is the same of glasses-free 3D displays (dual stack of LCDs), but in higher resolution. We propose their use in daily tasks where using eyeglasses are unfeasible or inconvenient (e.g., on head-mounted displays, e-readers, as well as for games); when a multi-focus function is required but undoable (e.g., driving for farsighted individuals, checking a portable device while doing physical activities for presbyopic); or for correcting the visual distortions produced by high-order aberrations that eyeglasses are not able to.
