 “ By 2019,People experience 3D
virtual reality through glasses
and contact lenses that beam
images directly to their retinas.
Coupled with an auditory source,
users can remotely communicate
with other people and access the
Internet. ”

- Ray Kurzweil, [ The Age of Spiritual Machines(1999) ]

 “ In future, internet is going to be in
our contact lens. When the internet is
going to be in our contact lens, you
will blink and you will go online. “

- Michio kaku
