Graphene: 2 Dimensional Super Material will replace plastic and other substances

[Parsons]

Another application that I've know about for some time but never remembered to post here is use in night vision. Graphene can be used as a night vision sensor at a small fraction of the cost (and bulk) of current nightvision technology. You may be picturing military applications, but there could be wonderful applications for civilians. This article talks about nightvision contact lenses, but IMO a much more practical application would be night vision "sunglasses" (nightglasses?). Either that, or you could coat your windshield in graphene and be able to see at night without headlights or street lights. This could increase safety and virtually eliminate light pollution because lights wouldn't be needed anymore. That would mean a lot to any amateur astronomer (such as myself) living inside a major city.
