the utensil computer? (i refuse to make a joke about it.)
what is it?
with the blind thing. if the optic nerve is okay, i think they can give an eye transplant. some work has been done with implants. i remember them testing a radar pack that you carry on your back (it's pretty big and bulky though). it seemed to allow blind people to maneuver round campus like bats.
another one was a chip implant in the head that sent an image to the brain in the form of dots that pin pointed outline. a bit like the dot vf spoke about. it wasn't sight by any means but in trials it allowed blind people to move around the house with out banging into moved furniture etc, by seeing edges and corners of objects that were cgi
