A film maker, Rob Spence, with no sight in his left eye, is going to replace his prosthetic eye with a tiny wireless video camera.
"If you lose your eye and have a hole in your head, then why not stick a camera in there?" he asks.
If successful, Spence will become one of a growing number of lifecasters. From early webcam pioneer Jennifer Kaye Ringley, who created JenniCam, to Microsoft researcher Gordon Bell, to commercial lifecasting ventures Ustream.tv and Justin.tv, many people use video and internet technology to record and broadcast every moment of their waking lives. But Spence is taking lifecasting a step further, with a bionic eye camera that is actually embedded in his body.Source: WIRED
