Show abstract
The NR600 retinal prosthetic device is a unique newly developed implant intended to restore visual perception to people who lost their vision due to retinal degenerative diseases. The miniature implant captures the visual image in place of the damaged photoreceptor cells and creates the electrical stimulation required to activate the preserved retinal cell layers. The NR600 system transduces visual signal into electrical signals that are delivered to the retina via an array of needle shaped electrodes to minimize electrical activation levels and improve stimulation localization. NR600 consists of two components: A miniature implantable chip and eyeglasses set worn by the patient. The eyeglasses deliver power and control the implantable device. In this report, we present the NR600 system design, its optical, electrical, and electro-chemical characteristics, and preliminary results from human subjects.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
