This camera, which would be mounted on spectacles, would work in a manner similar to cochlear ear implants, which are also attached to the head. This new technology is funded by the European Union's Executive Commission, which is dedicated to keeping top scientists in Europe. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://olympics.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=scienceNews&storyID=7690717 " target="blank">olympics.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=scienceNews&storyID=7690717 </a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
