Implant communication
So I noticed an update to one of the contact lens projects that a team has done a proof of concepts that allows a phone to communication with a contact lens at a range of 24inches.
Basically they are using a bluetooth broadcast signal as the power source and sending the signal back as backscatter in a form that can be picked up as wifi.
This prototype is built into a contact lens but I would think that this kind of device could be used for all kinds of things, monitoring implants, myoelectric sensors for prosthetics etc.

If this is possible then we could power any internal creations and they wouldn't be as large as they currently are. Do you have any other links to this maybe an MIT link?
Diabetics could have a phone app that could check your blood sugar wirelessly... thats awesome.
