The camera is also equipped with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity for easy transfer of files.

“We’re excited to bring this innovative product to market,” said the spokesperson. “With the Sony contact lens camera, users can capture life as they see it, in stunning 4K resolution and with incredible detail.”

The Sony contact lens camera will be available in three different sizes to accommodate a wide range of users. The lens is also available in prescription form for those who wear corrective lenses.

Product Dimensions:
Diameter: 14.2mm Thickness: 1.55mm Weight: 1 gram
