For you science nerds out there, you can even watch video of this new technology in action HERE. As a warning though, if you can't tell the difference between an electron and a hole in the wall (like I can't), this may bore the pants off of you. :)

P.S. - I mean no disrespect to the nerds reading this blog. Believe it or not, in 5th grade, I intentionally lied during my routine eye check-up, because I thought people with thick glasses looked cool. True story.
