It's not so hard to predict that, these are going to come as smart glasses, with many other features. So all the battery, electronics, cameras and software are already going to be there, and auto focus is just going to be in the "Accesibility" features in the settings. Smart glasses are going to be dope, but they could literally ruin our lifes as well. Like imagine ads projected right into your retina at any point.

Awesome presentation. Clear and precise.

Congratulations on a fine idea, Nitish! May your venture gain the backing you are hoping for and help those who are in need of this solution.

Hi Nitish - This is an excellent presentation. I am 80 years old, also an Electrical Engineer. My range of accommodation is 1.25 Diopters. I read a computer screen at 25 inches, with no glasses at all. I do use a plus lens, (cost $10) for work at 13 inches. So: No bifocal is ever necessary for me. For everything else? No glasses at all. The entire eye, is a long term control system, controling its refractive state, to its average of accommodation, from birth to maturity. (All primate studies.) The word, "Presbyopia", has no practical impact on me or my excellent vision.

This would also be extremely useful in VR. Lack of focal depth is one of the tougher problems in that space. With this tech, you'd want to reverse the effect so that your eyes have to focus as they would in real life. You can also tweak it for those with vision problems, of course.

Interesting to see how the DSLR autofocusing technology can also be apply in glasses

Excellent idea!!👍👍👌👌

Holly Molly of a Jolly, this is Great!

Micro linear motors will do for the lenses, dotted at the corners of the the two split lenses for each eye, you could use the design from the butterfly key switch or something similar to lower the profile, a faster solution could be magnetically driven coils that can set a distance although vibration could be a problem. It sounds like a fun project though, I'd love to tease it out 😊

What a way of talking!

Collaboration and Cooperation with the University of Reading, UK could yield great results. Their work is advanced.

Amazing.

This is so cool

The smartphone arrived just as my eyes said "we ain't doing this any more"

I'm in my early 40s, and I recently noticed that it was getting harder to have focus on objects right up to my face. I'm near sighted, so I"m accustomed to crystal clarity at short distances, so it was disappointing to notice presbyopia (which i just learned about from this video). This video also reminds me that for humans to compete with machines such that we don't eventually obsoletise ourselves, people will have to intergrate with machines more...eventually leading to a type of androidism. Sci-Fiction has been talking about this for decades, but it's starting to look closer & closer to reality.

This is the tech we need in VR.

Okay, I love these glasses and the idea. I've always had this idea and wanted to implement it someday but looks like it is coming out now. I am so happy for such innovators.

I feel bad seing my mom struggling with 2-3 pairs of glasses, switching between them for every different purpose. Since I already perma-use glasses, watching this video made me excited. good luck and hope this will become smaller and affordable by the time i`ll need this feature. :)

As someone who is a "Presbyope" this gives me hope!

I required both reading glasses and long distant glasses. But being poor, I could not update these glasses to maintain sharp vision. Eventually my long distant glasses fell apart due to being so old. So now I always wore my reading glasses, and did so even when looking across far distances. This exercised my eyes. Now I only need the one pair of glasses.

I would love having a pair of glasses with no focus problems that makes you tilt your head just to see clearly, especially when working on the ceiling fixture. It would be even better if they could figure out how to restore the original elasticity of the eyes Len's.

I am not even joking but when he said that the lens cannot tell at which distance should it focus, I was like well put a distance measuring thingy or maybe an eye tracker . Obviously we need both to make it work but I am dumb I thought using one would work😅 the thought came to me because of the animation , it looked like an eye tracker

The guy is slightly incorrect about presbyopia. If you've been nearsighted and work glasses all your life, your lenses in your eye can get locked in to close focusing. I had cataract surgery on only my right eye. I chose to have the focus set permanently for distance. My left eye is stuck on really close vision (like 5"). So, my depth perception was shot for a while. But I finally got (almost) completely used to it, partly thanks to my Nikon progressive lenses. (See my other comment.)

So a lense that either expands and contracts or auto sliding lenses. How would the glasses focus on what your retinas are looking at though?

I'll be expecting this in Apple Glasses Pro. Apple glass 1 will be announced this October 2020.

I had a idea for auto focus lenses, I wasn't sure if it existed. Know I see this, every idea is already thought of. I am still goibg to make mine, i want to see it work

Forget the eye tracking. Default to infinite focus and use the distance measuring thing to switch to nearer focus if there is an object inside a sensing area. That way I still have to put the book down, but at least I don't have to take my glasses off. And I don't have to wait 5 extra years for you to get out of the prototype phase.

Quando isso sair deverá ser muito caro. Deverá ser o olho da cara!

That's innovation!
