The new neural implant ELVIS V will allow blind people to recognize objects and see text. This was announced by the CEO of "Sensor-Tech" (resident of the Skolkovo Foundation) Denis Kuleshov.
The ELVIS V neural implant is implanted into the human brain and stimulates the visual cortex with weak currents. The system consists of a camera, a wireless transmitter, and a microcomputer. The camera captures the image and transmits it to a chip, where it is processed by a microcomputer.
The neural implant works on the basis of two algorithms. The first level mechanism breaks down images into segments and sends a signal to the cerebral cortex. The second helps the blind person navigate in space using machine vision.
Our second-level AI algorithm also recognizes text and voices what is on the page.
According to the CEO of Sensor-Tech, ELVIS V will be the first certified implant in the world that can be implanted in blind people.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Russian scientists will be able to restore the human spinal cord after injury.
