Hello Lucyd fans!
Now that we are back on Steemit with a vengeance, we'd like to update the community here as to what we've been doing since the end of our ICO.
For those of you who are unaware, we finished out public sale with a total investment of over $6 million dollars! It was very encouraging to see so many people support our vision for bringing augmented reality mainstream. Since then, we've been hard at work developing our Lucyd Lens AR smartglasses which should be ready in Q1 2019.
Welcoming Dr. Trattler to the team
More recently, we're happy to announce that we've appointed William B. Trattler, MD as a science advisor to the team.
In addition to regularly performing cataract, refractive and laser surgeries, Dr. Trattler has been involved in over 60 clinical trials as an investigator. Some of these have even lead to FDA approval for new medical technologies such as pharmaceuticals and medical devices.
Because he's recognized as an expert in treating corneal diseases, we're confident that this - along with the massive list of his other qualifications - make him an excellent choice to advise our optical engineers when designing our next-generation smartglasses.
Not only that, but Dr. Trattler has written literally hundreds of articles and abstracts in his career. He also co-authored a book entitled, "Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple" - a textbook used by medical students all over the world.
Now, we know that the average Steemian probably isn't too up-to-date on the inner-workings of the ophthalmology industry, but Dr. Trattler was awarded the "Outstanding Young Opthalmologist Leadership Award" from the Florida Society Of Opthalmology in 2002.
Simply put, Dr. Trattler is one of the most decorated professionals to join the Lucyd team to date.
Here's a list of some more of his accomplishments:
- Recognized as one of the top 50 Cataract and Refractive Surgery Opinion Leaders in a survey conducted by the publication Cataract and Refractive Surgery Today
- Recognized by the publication Ocular Surgery News as a Premier Surgeon refractive cataract surgery.
- Named by the publication “The Ophthalmologist” as one of the “Top 100 most influential people in the world of ophthalmology.”
- Is on the Volunteer Faculty at the Florida International University Wertheim College of Medicine
- Has also been on the voluntary faculty of the University of Miami’s Bascom Palmer Eye Institute.
When asked about his involvement with Lucyd, Dr. Trattler had this to say:
“I look forward to having the opportunity to contribute a medical perspective as part of the evaluation of Lucyd’s forthcoming smartglasses. Ergonomically designed smartglasses that help to enhance visual performance are certainly needed and are an exciting potential upgrade to traditional glasses.”
So there you have it Steemians! With our successful ICO behind us and people like Dr. Trattler on our team, we are on track to hit our upcoming milestones. We can't wait for the release of our smartglasses in 2019, and we hope you are as excited as we are!
