Bio-electronic implant seeks to restore partial sight
Filed under: Misc. Gadgets
We’ve seen initiatives all by the globe created in an attempt to beat blindness, but researchers based at MIT are feeling fairly confident that their development is within a few years of being able to “restore partial sight to public who have slowly gone blind considering of degenerative diseases of the retina.” The bio-electronic implant, which is about the size of a pencil eraser, would actually sit behind the retina at the back of the eyeball, and images would be transmitted to the brain “via a connector the width of a human hair.”
