Intraocular augmented reality display with retinal prosthesis

Abstract

We present an intraocular augmented reality display featuring retinal prostheses in association with bionic vision processing. Unlike conventional retinal prostheses, whose electrodes are spaced equidistantly, our solution is to rearrange the electrodes to match the distribution of ganglion cells. To naturally imitate the human vision, a scheme of bionic vision processing is developed. On top of a three-dimensional eye model, our bionic vision processing is able to visualize the monocular image, binocular image fusion, and parallax-induced depth map.
