카메라 내장된 눈을 가지고 있는 영화제작자 자칭 '아이보그'라 이름 붙인 영화제작자는 붉은 빛을 발하고 카메라가 내장된 터미네이터 스타일의 보철 눈으로 최대 30분 분량의 영상을 녹화할 수 있다. 롭 스펜스(47)는 어린 시절 엽총 사고로 오른쪽 눈의 시력을 잃었다. 2008년에 눈을 제거하는 대신 거기에 비디오 카메라가 들어 있는 보철물로 바꾸기로 결정했다. 그것은 면접 대상자를 기록할 수 있는 것이다. 보철기의 카메라는 스펜스 씨의 시신경과 연결되어 있지 않기 때문에 오른쪽 눈의 시력을 회복시키지는 못한다. 그러나 이 장치는 보는 모든 것을 캡처하여 녹화, 모니터로 재생하거나 온라인으로 업로드할 수 있는 위치에서 수신기로 전송할 수 있다. 그것이 포착한 영상은 말 그대로 스펜스 씨의 시야를 제공하는데, 주위를 힐끗거리고 깜빡이는 것만으로 완벽하다. 현재 보철용 배터리는 재충전이 필요할 때 30분 정도 가동할 수 있다. 황기철 콘페이퍼 에디터 큐레이터 Ki Chul Hwang, conpaper editor, curator |

A self-declared 'Eyeborg' filmmaker can record up to 30 minutes of footage with his Terminator-style prosthetic eye that glows red and has an embedded camera.
Rob Spence, 47, lost the sight in his right eye as a child following a shotgun accident.
On having the eye removed in 2008, the Canadian decided to replace it with a prosthetic containing a video camera — one that could record interview subjects.
The camera in the prosthetic is not connected to Mr Spence's optic nerve — so it does not restore the vision in his right eye.
However, the device can capture everything it sees and transmit the video to a receiver from where it can be recorded, played on a monitor or uploaded online.
The footage it captures literally offers Mr Spence's point-of-view — complete with glancing around and blinking.
At present, the prosthetic's battery can run for around 30 minutes at at time before it needs to be recharged.

'For me being an "Eyeborg" is all about taking a bad situation and making it better,' Mr Spence told the Medical Device Network.
'I don’t have to just "fit in" with a prosthetic. I can celebrate my cyborgness and individuality,' he added.
'In other words, being one-eyed can be f***ing cool.'
