Sony's latest combines a Cyber-shot camera with a retinal projection system to allow those with poor eyesight to see the world and enjoy photography.
Sony’s new DSC-HX99RNV is a retinal projection camera system that is designed to help people with visual impairments better see the world around them and allow them to enjoy photography in ways they previously could not.
The first half of the equation, the DSC-HX99, is a Cyber-shot model travel camera that has a 24-720mm zoom lens, what Sony categorizes as “high power.” This base camera was originally released in 2018 and features an 18-megapixel Type 1/2.3 backside illuminated sensor that is supported by built-in image stabilization.Retissa Neoviewer viewfinder
“The laser retinal projection of Retissa Neoviewer is a completely new technology that has been put to practical use for the first time in the world,” says Dr. Mitsuru Sugawara, President and CEO of QD Laser, Inc. Combined, Sony says that the technology allows users to actually see landscapes and faces, read signs, and capture photos through retinal projection that basically gives vision back to those who have basically lost it — at least to some degree.
