The famous documentary maker from Canada, Rob Spence, has taken inspiration from his love of science fiction to help him get over losing his eye six years ago. Rob Spence has put a camera in his eye and he says that his inspiration has come from his love of the bionic man and the many characters in science fiction that have artificial eyes.
With the help of experts he has created an artificial camera that looks just like an eye and fits into his eye socket that no longer has the healthy eye in it.
He initially started to lose his sight in his eye in a shooting accident when he was child and over time his eyesight gradually got worse until he lost of the vision in the eye completely.
He is planning to use the camera in order to try and make more interesting films with a more realistic angle.His false eye can currently transmit live feeds to a website.
It makes filming for his films a whole new experiencing as he can control the camera angle much better with it in his head.
