Man Has Night Vision Injected Into His Eyeballs, Thanks To Biohackers

Night vision is something that we can
all agree is cool. The prowling cats of
the wild use it to hunt prey, special
service groups use it to bring down bad
guys and batman uses it to bring down
the joker. But now it maybe accessible
to everybody.

Science for the masses, an organisation
dedicated to the propagation of
science to the general public, has
conducted an experiment whereby they
injected one of their members,
researcher Gabriel Licina, with chlorine
e6, a chemical compound.

Gabriel Licina had 50 microliters of
blackish solution dropped in to his eyes
by a pipette. His eyes were first
flushed clean and propped open with a
speculum (no blinking) and then his
biohacking began.

Gabriel Licina was tested two hours
after the operation and he could
identify objects as large as hands 10
metres away in darkness. In time he
was able to recognize words and
numbers and objects moving against
different backgrounds.

At most he could
recognize objects 50 metres away!
When he was asked to point out
people hidden infront of trees and
shrubs, he pointed at them with a laser
pointer and got it right every time.
