BRUSSELS (Reuters) - A Canadian filmmaker plans to have a mini camera installed in his prosthetic eye to make documentaries and raise awareness about surveillance in society.

Rob Spence, 36, who lost an eye in an accident as a teen-ager, said his so-called Project Eyeborg is to have the camera, a battery and a wireless transmitter mounted on a tiny circuit board. www.eyeborgblog.com/

Don't worry, I'm sure some busybody do-gooders will enact laws that allow the police to give random eye-socket searches. 🙁

Ha, reminds me of a short story a very good friend of mine wrote...

Changing that battery is going to be painful.

Although I presume he has a glass eye.

Reminds me of the film with Harvey Keitel, Deathwatch.
