Visual Prostheses, Brain Computer Interface.Abstract
The development of visual prostheses is a popular field of research in recent years. Several approaches had been suggested to create artificial vision, with varying progress to success. This work attempts to briefly review the current state of research and its implication on patients. We mainly focus on the novel retinal and cortical visual prostheses, and investigate effect of various stimulation regions. Eventually, we also presented our concerns and challenges about this field.
