I saw a demo retinal dispaly at the university of washington in the late 90s.

At the HITlab?

I interviewed Dan Bricklin in '88 or '89 (for a magazine). Trippy dude. Lots of ideas.

Bricklin stated the optic nerve is exposed brain. So that when a laser projects an imagine directly on to the retina, it's like programming the brain.

Nope.

I decided right then and there I never needed a laser pointing at my eye ball.
