    An Idea

    What if our glasses could do image processing? Inspired by NEI's Audacious Goals Initiative we began developing this idea. Glasses allow for a specific type of trasformation (refraction) of light. In principle, a more general class of transformations to manipulate visuospatial elements might provide an enhanced view for individuals with a broad range of visual deficits.

    It's been a busy time at the Aiden Lab changing the field of genome assembly and 4D genomics - but we're returning to VisoR this year. We also just hit 160K+ downloads on Google Play! A big thank you to all of our supporters!! We plan to push out updated versions of the app this year, as well as a version for Gear VR!
