Camera vision.
36-year-old Canadian film-maker Rob Spence doesn't seem unusual. You wouldn't realise it at first, but one of his eyes is false. But this is not the most unusual thing about him. Inside this false eye Spence has a wireless video camera.This camera is not connected to his brain and has not improved his eyesight Instead it records everything he sees.The camera runs on a very small battery and it has a transmitter, a device which allows Spence to send an image of what he is seeing at any moment to a computer. Spence damaged his right eye at the age of thirteen while he was playing with his grandfather's gun on a visit to Ireland. After the accident his vision got worse until he became completely blind in that eye.Three years ago. he had an operation to remove this eye and to insert a false one. And it is this false eye that now contains his miniature video camera.
