# 2024 Intracortical visual prosthesis |
This project introduces a groundbreaking intracortical visual prosthesis (ICVP), a wireless brain implant designed to restore partial vision for people with blindness. The ICVP bypasses the retina and optic nerves, directly stimulating the brain's visual cortex through wireless microelectrode arrays. These arrays transmit image data from a video camera, creating visual perceptions. This technology, currently undergoing clinical trials, promises to improve independence, mobility, and quality of life for individuals with blindness, offering new opportunities for daily activities and employment
