Another day, another personal health-themed news post. Thanks to coverage I saw in GigaOm, I'm able to tell you about Netra, a several-dollar cameraphone add-on originally developed at MIT that diagnoses nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. As Kevin Tofel's writeup explains, "The Netra clips to a phone and users tap buttons on the touchscreen display until

To date, the bulk of embedded vision applications I've written about have focused their spectral attention on visible light frequencies, predominantly because they employ the same conventional image sensors found in digital still and video cameras, webcams, smartphones and tablets, computers and displays, and the like. However, plenty of embedded vision functions also exist that
