It's actually going to be needed for every Elec contact lens made. I would say that's huge.
Elastic Circuit is huge. We should more than double when approved. Huge$$$$$$$$. Go EPGL!!!
Answer this question??? can anyone tell me in all there years of investing have you ever seen or been in a stock with such amazing potential.. Has the attention of big players like Apple, JNJ, Google, Novartis, CooperVision and list goes on. There all in a race to see who will have the first Elec contact lens etc.. My money is on EPGL. Why else would billon dollar companies be contacting EPGL??? They have key patents pending, with one already approved. $$$$$$$$$$$$.
EPGL is moving at light speed now.. No long under CooperVision thumb. We could get big news at any time...
Micheal Hayes and David Markus are two very smart guys. It was great to meet Brady Peterson, David Markus and Micheal Hayes last week at EPGL fist conference. I'm more excited than before....... Go EPGL!

Your contact lenses or a sensor implanted in your brain could some day send health updates to your smartphone and even your doctor.
A new technology called interscatter communication that's being developed at the University of Washington would allow small devices, such as contact lenses, implantable sensors and credit cards, to communicate with everyday devices, like smartphones and smart watches.
"Wireless connectivity for implanted devices can transform how we manage chronic diseases," said UW researcher Vikram Iyer, in a statement. "For example, a contact lens could monitor a diabetics blood sugar level in tears and send notifications to the phone when the blood sugar level goes down."
Researchers at the Seattle university built a few proof-of-concept demos for applications that previously had been impractical or impossible to create. One demonstration was for a smart contact lens and another was for an implantable neural recording device that could communicate directly with a smartphone or watch.
The research is funded by the National Science Foundation and Google Faculty Research Awards. Google has shown particular interest in the technology and was conducting its own research into smart contact lenses that can test diabetics' blood glucose levels two years ago.
Using wireless chips and miniaturized glucose sensors embedded between two layers of soft contact lens material, the smart lenses were being designed to test blood sugar levels in the user's tears.
When it announced the research in 2014, Google said its scientists were experimenting with using LED lights in the lenses to alert users if their glucose levels were off.
The UW research could solve the communications problem for many devices, including sensors and credit card, as well as contact lenses.

How to keep devices on secure Wi-Fi?
The interscatter communication works by converting Bluetooth signals into Wi-Fi transmissions over the air that can be picked up by a smartphone or smart watch. That enables these devices, which have very little power, to communicate with other devices without any extra equipment.
UW's research team, which is made up of computer scientists and electric engineers, said that by using common mobile devices to generate Wi-Fi signals, they can use 10,000 times less energy than they would using other communication methods.
"That means that we can use just as much bandwidth as a Wi-Fi network and you can still have other Wi-Fi networks operate without interference," said electrical engineering doctoral student and researcher Bryce Kellogg, in a statement.
Aside from the medical applications, the UW researchers said that interscatter communications also could be used to enable smart credit cards to communicate with each other.
For instance, if two people want to split a restaurant bill, they might simply tap their cards together to share the information.
"Providing the ability for these everyday objects like credit cards – in addition to implanted devices – to communicate with mobile devices can unleash the power of ubiquitous connectivity," said Shyam Gollakota, assistant professor of computer science and engineering at UW.

For the ones that were at the conference. You will understand this article from 2011.

Disagree
The ones that didn't make it, really missed out. Very informative. You should all be extremely excited. The stock price definitely doesn't reflect the true value. I can't say enough about MIcheal Hayes or David Markus.. Very very smart guys. Epgl is really in the right place at the right time with real technologies, and seem to be way ahead of billon dollar companies. Ask yourself this, why would COO, JNJ, AAPL etc. Knock on EPGL's door if they didn't have a real chance at being the next big thing. I know I'm backing up the truck. You can say whatever you want, they have and are making it happen. One thing they did say, is that they do care a lot about their share holders and that's no fluff
Vegas baby! This conference has to be more than a meet and greet. Stay tuned!!!
Thanks Judypudy
I think EPGL has something big to share with its loyal longs and new shareholders. New deals / partners, Possibly show us some of their tech, Prototypes? etc. I could be wrong.. I wouldn't think this conf is just for a meet and greet? I'm excited anyways!
This would be huge for both companies. You could be right?
Go EPGL$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Seems like a huge buying opportunity NVDA in my opinion.
AppleInsider.com
EPGL's smart contact lens proof of concept.
According to a tweet posted to EPGL's official Twitter account late last month, the firm is slated to meet with Apple on Sept. 13 "to explore use of iOS for mobile in future augmented reality lenses." EPGL has not yet settled on a single mobile operating system to pair with its AR contact lens project, the company clarified in a statement to AppleInsider
My guess-
Buyout or partnership between EPGL, Intel, JNJ and Apple. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ either way is a win win. Go EPGL!!!!
Totally agree! We could see .10+ by end of the week if JNJ employees start realizing whats going on. Also-with many patents pending. We could see another one approved any day now.
Go $EPGL$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Just now Big News $EPGL
Franck, that what I'm saying!!
Lies? Sometime stuff doesn't happen when you want it to. I've been burned may times. As far as I know. He has come through on this one. There's been a lot of changing gears and direction into contact lenses where the big $$$$$$ will come from. I think it's a Smart move.. I've been frustrated many times. It's hard to wait... Everyone, wants it now. I do! Just need to relax a little longer, I believe. I think next month will be good for all shareholders. Just my opinion.. Doesn't mean much.
This should already be a .10 stock if not higher. Look at all the other companies out there that are much higher with much less on peer speculation. This is a real company with a great future. We should be buying like crazy. Once this takes off you will wish you were in at these levels. The proof is there....
This is very exciting! Where will the stock go now that we have an APPROVED PATENT!!!
Fantastic news!!!! Great job EPGL!!!
Go $EPGL$$$$$$
I believe EPGL has tech that Sony, Google, etc will all need.
Nice job Franck!
You should buy and hold. That's just my opinion. EPGL must be close to Big News! It's way too quiet.
If the technologies are real and your correct we would have a very large deal already. I don't think they want a deal on the possibility of an approval.
That would be the difference of a 200mil deal verses a Billion dollar
Deal here. I think there holding out!
Look at it this way. We've never seen this stock pumped like most. We can see that there is real technologies with patents pending. I think if we all can just hang in there we will see something really big happen with this stock $EPGL by mid Sept. Send tweets to everyone in the tech industry. Let's keep this stock strong and float as thin as we can until it pops. It has to happen soon. They keep telling us news is coming. Listen to what they have been saying without them coming out and saying it. Micheal Hayes show us how much you believe in your company EPGLMED. $EPGL Show us longs how much we are appreciated. Apple for example didn't happen over night. Most of us missed that one. I know I did. EPGL has great idea and real technologies that will be life changing. Need those patent approvals to start rolling in... I know any day, any day.
Can't wait for SmartVision conference in Sept. Will $EPGL show case their technologies? I really believe we will see at least one patent approved by then. Also- possibly new partners, new technologies, etc. Think why would they have one if they didn't believe in their company????
EPGL- Bring it!
EPGL stock will rise. If you don't think so sell. I will buy them. Thanks in advance.
Sure would.
It's not easy to hang on without updates, I get it... We know this company is the real deal. Patents pending, real technologies. I've been a shareholder for along time now. They would of never scheduled the Vegas SmartVision conference in Sept if they didn't believe that we would have a patent approved by then or some BIG news. Hanging in there buying on the dips. We should be seeing something very soon. It's time! Believe in $EPGL we have all hung in there this long. Patients is a Virtue my Dad always said.
Me too! Go EPGL!!!
This is crazy! This is the next BIG thing.. Do you guys realize once a patent is approved this will skyrocket. Don't make the mistake of giving up on EPGL. I did before in many other stock do to being impatient and wished I hadn't. Mr Hayes has not let us down. Of course I wish one was already approved but, have to wait a little longer... Hang in there, I know I will. There are many patents awaiting approval. GO EPGL!!! Mr Hayes we / I know you'll come through. You haven't worked this hard for your shareholders to let us down.
Hopefully, all this means are that others are close as well to being approved.
Nice job Frank92! $$$EPGL$$$
Happy 4th shareholders! Hopefully we see EPGL fireworks next week.
Huge Buying opportunity
