Developed the first electronic eye in the world

A group of Australian industrial shaping scientists has successfully developed the first electronic eye in the world, the device can help thousands of blind people in the world have the opportunity to see the light again. .

According to scientists, visually impaired people with electronic implants have the opportunity to see basic shapes assembled by light rays through a glass like the Google Glass device. The camera mounted on this glass will gather images, information and transform into a signal and be transmitted to a micro chip implanted in the recipient's brain.

The idea of ​​developing an electronic eye stems from the fact that scientists think it is possible to transmit a visual signal directly to the brain of a person who has had a damaged eye removed through a wireless connection.

Mark Armstrong, Monash University's Head of Electronic Eye Research and Development, said it was the world's first wireless brain implant developed for the visually impaired and the electronic eye was wondrous. Hope will bring light and basic image to those who completely lose sight. The project is expected to be put into practice next year.

The team said that although the device cannot provide complete vision for the visually impaired, for those who are completely blind, only a small amount of information can be of great help. With this technology, the visually impaired will not have to regularly implant the devices that handle wired connections in the brain to be able to see the light.

According to the group of scientists, electronic eye devices will help more than 85% of blind people worldwide. The current challenge for the group is to develop lighter and more capable glasses that are comfortable and comfortable for every blind person.
