A visual prostheses codes visual signals into electrical stimulation patterns for the creation of artificial vision. In some examples, coding of the information uses image compression techniques, temporal coding strategies, continuous interleaved sampling (CIS), and/or radar or sonar data. Examples of the approach are not limited to processing visual signals but can also be used to processing signals at other frequency ranges (e.g., infrared, radio frequency, and ultrasound), for instance, creating an augmented visual sensation. |
