#92Does anyone know if the eye moves in congress with the other eye or if its stationary i.e. always faces forward?

> On the other hand, every mirror would be a great chance to lose your other eye as well, so maybe disregard my ideas. At those power levels? Probably every surface in general. A beam powerful enough to light a match or burn through a balloon is powerful enough for the diffuse reflection off a table or wall to blind you.
You could just wear laser safety glasses. Wait..
This is why Cyclops from the X-Men wears red sunglasses all the time, even when out of uniform.

#94That's a very creative way of spicing up a boring old glass eye! I imagine such "wearable" tech could also be the ultimate version of those snapchat glasses. Putting a battery inside your eye socket seems incredibly risky to me, though. Especially one that can power a bright light like this for a while...
Honestly while a lithium battery might worry me I’d be more worried about heat dissapation. Of course the dude says it isn’t an issue, but still.
I guess it might not matter much because the battery is so small that you’d be lucky to get more than a handful of minutes running that LED at max power.
This is all speculation based on a 30 second video though.

#95The repulsion hackernews crowd will face while opening TikTok.
nonsense. for those who dont care to run tiktok ive written an ephemeral microservice driven with an AWS lambda, rust enabled, react framwork that uses an intuitive haskell based dockerless rootless console interface for the API i created out of a go based esolang implementation of the Turing complete driver for TikTok included in the 7.7 Linux kernel I built a ruby on rails time machine to travel into the future and…
That’s reads like it took a lot of effort to write.

I wonder what power laserpointer you could fit in there without going overboard with the battery... Imagine being able to light matches by looking at them for a bit. On the other hand, every mirror would be a great chance to lose your other eye as well, so maybe disregard my ideas.
A low-power laser pointer would still be very interesting and perfectly safe. Star Trek/X-men/Superman/Star Wars dreams of stunning enemies with a beam of light from your eyes, there's no to have power levels that can light matches, pop balloons, or otherwise cause destruction. One cool use, IMO, would be a time of flight distance-measuring laser: With only a single working eye, OP lacks binocular vision for distance…
Might not even need a voice. I wonder if you could “tap into” the remaining bits of the optic nerve and send a signal that way. The signal would vary based on distance. Maybe simulate intensity of light or something.
Would probably require some kind of crazy training for it to work. Plus I have no clue what I’m talking about!

Safety contacts?

I mean...isn't it effectively water cooled?

#99what about shielding? cancer?
Are you concerned with light or heat caused cancer?
