From the article:
"The test lens was powered remotely using a 5-millimetre-long antenna printed on the lens to receive gigahertz-range radio-frequency energy from a transmitter placed ten centimetres from the rabbit's eye. "
I'm a pretty rational person and I have no problem holding a cell phone up to my head, but this scares me.
- CamperBob 15y agoIt shouldn't scare you. They'll be using milliwatts of RF, nowhere near enough to heat your lenses.
- wcoenen 15y agoWhy? It would probably be a much weaker signal than that of a cellphone (~500 milliwatts). Assuming the tech is similar to short-range RFID, it could run on a transmission power of a few milliwatts.
