The technology uses algorithms to alter an image based on a person glasses prescription together with a light filter set in front of the display.
The algorithm alters the light from each individual pixel so that, when fed through a tiny hole in the plastic filter, rays of light reach the retina in a way that re-creates a sharp image.

Microsoft s Quantum Search for The next Transistor Microsoft is making a significant investment in creating a practical version of the basic component needed to build a quantum computer,
the basis of all computing today. his is our attempt to find the analogous device to the transistor,
Microsoft has dedicated a quantum computing research lab, known as Station Q, on the campus of University of California,
A quantum computer should be able to complete calculations that are effectively impossible for any conventional machine today.
Although the Canadian company D-Wave Systems has sold several machines it says are quantum computers experts say there is still no definitive proof that they exploit quantum principles
and Jeff Bezos Bet on Quantum computing. Microsoft is not currently attempting to build a quantum computer. Rather, its research effort is aimed at developing a reliable version of the qubit, the key building block of a quantum computer.
Just like a transistor in a conventional computer, a qubit can switch between states that represent either a 1 or 0 of digital data.
But a qubit can also exploit quantum effects to reach a uperposition statethat is both 1 and 0 at the same time.
That would allow a quantum computer to process data many times faster than any conventional computer.
Researchers have built qubits of different designs and even used small numbers of them together for very basic calculations.
But none are able to maintain a superposition state very reliably, making them impractical for anyone hoping to build a computer of any size. e believe that current approaches will said never scale
Lee. Microsoft research focuses on a type of qubit known as a topological qubit that theory suggests would encode data in a much more robust way.
The theoretical basis of topological qubits was sketched first out at UC Santa barbara roughly eight years ago,
says Lee. Then around four years ago, Microsoft researchers led work to pose a series of key tests that could show
Work is now underway to actually build a working topological qubit. To support that effort,
Microsoft is already looking ahead to explore what could be done with a system of topological qubits once they are built. upposing that one day we have a quantum machine:
says Lee. oday we have clear ideas in classical computing about problems we can solve
