The '''Mojo Vision Lens''' was a prototype [[augmented reality]] [[smart contact lens]] developed by [[Mojo Vision]]. Demonstrated on-eye in June 2022 (on CEO Drew Perkins), the lens featured the world's smallest micro-LED display at 0.5mm diameter with 14,000 PPI and 1.8-micron pixel pitch, integrated ARM M0 processor, 5 GHz proprietary radio, medical-grade micro-battery, and eye-tracking IMU sensors. The scleral lens design sat on the white of the eye for comfort while delivering AR information directly to the wearer's vision. Mojo Vision pivoted in 2023 from consumer contact lens development to supplying micro-LED display technology to other companies.<ref name="mojo">{{cite web|url=https://spectrum.ieee.org/looking-through-mojo-visions-newest-ar-contact-lens|title=Mojo Vision Puts Its AR Contact Lens Into Its CEO's Eyes|publisher=IEEE Spectrum}}</ref>

== History and Development ==

=== 2020 Announcement ===
Mojo Vision revealed plans for AR contact lenses at CES 2020.

=== June 2022 On-Eye Demo ===
First feature-complete AR contact lens worn by CEO Drew Perkins.

=== 2023 Pivot ===
Company shifted focus to micro-LED display manufacturing for other devices.

== Technology ==

=== Display ===
* '''Type:''' Micro-LED
* '''Diameter:''' 0.5mm (0.48mm)
* '''Pixel Pitch:''' 1.8 microns
* '''PPI:''' 14,000
* '''Resolution:''' ~120 x 120 pixels
* '''Color:''' Monochrome green (optimized for human vision)
* '''FOV:''' 15 degrees

=== "World's Smallest" Display ===
Claimed to be the world's smallest micro-LED display ever produced.

== Processing ==

=== Embedded Processor ===
* '''CPU:''' ARM M0 (low power)
* '''GPU:''' Integrated graphics
* '''Power Management:''' Integrated circuit

=== Radio ===
* '''Frequency:''' 5 GHz proprietary
* '''Reason:''' Bluetooth too slow/high latency
* '''Connection:''' Close-proximity controller

== Sensors ==

=== Eye Tracking ===
* Accelerometer
* Gyroscope
* Magnetometer
* Gaze-based UI control

=== Image Sensor ===
* Captures surroundings
* Computer vision processing
* Edge detection

=== Optics ===
Miniature reverse Cassegrain telescope for eye tracking.

== Scleral Lens Design ==

=== Comfort ===
* Sits on sclera (white of eye)
* Avoids sensitive cornea
* Fewer nerve endings

=== Custom Fit ===
Each lens custom-fitted to individual eye shape.

=== Breathability ===
* Air channels built into lens
* Oxygen diffusion to cornea
* Safe for extended wear

=== Prescription Compatible ===
Can incorporate corrective prescription.

== Power ==

=== Micro-Battery ===
* Thin film bio-safe battery
* Medical-grade components

=== Charging ===
* Overnight charging
* Combined cleaning/charging case
* Similar to smartwatch workflow

== Interaction ==

=== Eye-Controlled UI ===
* Gaze-based navigation
* No hand controllers
* Natural eye movements

=== External Controller ===
* Close-proximity relay device
* Could be worn as necklace
* Handles connectivity

== Limitations ==

=== Prototype Stage ===
* Limited production
* Development demonstrations only
* Not consumer-ready

=== Display Constraints ===
* 15° field of view
* Monochrome only
* Low resolution

== Company Pivot ==

=== 2023 Direction Change ===
Mojo Vision transitioned from consumer lens development to B2B micro-LED supply.

=== Technology Applications ===
Micro-LED displays for other AR/VR devices.
