Eye-5 was a special kind of contact lenses that can be used to record the things it sees.
Overview
Functions
The lens, though they looked and functioned just like normal contact lenses, could transmit information wirelessly back to a computer network. A person at the other end could then communicate with them via a keyboard. However, the lens could not transmit sound. (TW: Reset) To get around this, the lens had lip-reading software, which worked best when the person in question faced the camera directly. The lip-reading software transcribed lip movements to speech after a short delay of a second or two. Information transmitted from the lens could get recorded like conventional video. According to Gwen Cooper, they were also apparently untraceable. (TW: Children of Earth: Day Three)
