Colour blind artist becomes world's first 'eyeborg' by having antenna implanted inside his skull to 'hear' colours | Daily Mail Online
"A colour blind artist claims he can now 'hear' colours after having an 'eyeborg' antenna implanted into his skull."
'But he has now convinced surgeons to implant the chip inside his skull so that he can perceive more intricate colours. '
'The audio input - which is now implanted inside the back of his skull - allows him to receive the visual spectrum captured by his camera via bone vibrations. '
'A wifi connector inside the chip allows him to hear images sent from a mobile phone - without even looking at them. ', "The cyborg antenna - or 'eyeborg' - is composed of a camera on one end and an audio input on the other end."

See colors or wear hats. Tough choice right there.

Um ok so almost 3 years ago.
Also if he was going to hear them the surgery seems a bit excessive as a sort of glasses and ear bud would be similar or at least much safer.

Aren't there glasses that fix this problem? Seems like an awful lot of work

How would glasses fix his inability to perceive color?
