IRIS II Bionic Vision System Approved in Europe
Pixium Vision, a firm out of Paris, France, won the EU CE mark of approval to introduce its*IRIS II Bionic Vision System to people who are suffering from outer retinal degeneration. The System relies on a camera embedded into a special pair of glasses and a 150 electrode epi-retinal implant surgically positioned next to the eye. The*camera obtains an image that is converted into electrical signals and transmitted to the implant that stimulates the*nerve cells of the inner retina. Unlike a traditional image sensor, the camera inside the glasses has independent pixels that are **t updated on a clock, but instead are continuously recognizing changes. Essentially, the System acts like the mass of photoreceptor cells that it effectively replaces, providing people basic Vision capabilities when there would otherwise be **ne.The implant is both removable and upgradeable, potentially leading to improved Vision in people who are actually losing their natural abilities.
