The man calling himself the Eyeborg has put together a short documentary detailing modern bionics and cutting edge prosthetics, part of which was filmed using his eye camera.
Rob Spence lost his eye in a firearm accident a few years back, but the filmmaker refused to stop doing what he loved, so he had a prosthetic eye camera specially designed, and thus became the first person to have a implanted camera replace their eye.
Square Enix are Rob's newest sponsors, and they have commissioned him to make a video that compares modern prosthetics and bionics to the bodily enhancements found in the new game Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
Follow either of the links below and check out this amazing, cutting edge video by the first bionic cameraman, and see how medical science is quickly catching up to science fiction.

Yeah, saw this yesterday. Been playing the game too, it's done justice to the original game (ignore the 2nd one which should never have existed) and the feeling you get with the atmosphere is a mix between Ghost in the Shell & Bladerunner.

Journey to the Far Side of the Sun, 1969, had Doctor Hassler, played by Herbert Lom, with an artificial eye spy camera.
