There are 130 million receptors in the retina but only than 1.2 million or so nerve fibers in the optic nerve. There is a whole lot of very advanced signal processing going on in retina before the signals are sent to the brain.

I comparison, this device has 5760 photo-sensitive transistors connected to 3600 transistors for further processing.

This is not even close, folks.

This is not even close, folks.

And people will never need more that 640k of memory... We'll never set foot on the moon. There will never be a cure for cancer.

It may not be close, but it is CLOSER than anything that has gone before and sets the stage for the next generation of improvements. Going from zero vision blindness to this is a major step in the right direction.

I'll hold off until they come up with a unit that'll process infrared through high ultra-violet... ;-)
