A new brain implant helps restore vision by communicating directly with the brain. Scientists have built two brain implants that give blind people partial vision by wiring cameras directly to the visual cortex. One device also reads brain signals and adjusts itself in real time.
Two separate brain implant systems, the ICVP and a closed-loop visual neuroprosthesis, restore partial vision in blind people by directly stimulating the visual cortex, with one device also adapting based on brain signals.
