Abstract:
1. A system for implantation in a mammal body for the control of and communication with a medical implant in the mammal body, the system comprising a command input device and a processing device coupled thereto, the processing device being adapted to generate input to a command generator which is comprised in the system coupled to the processing device and which is adapted to generate and communicate commands to the medical implant in response to input received from the processing device, the system further comprising a memory unit connected to at least one of said devices in the system for storing a memory bank of commands, the system being characterized in that: it is adapted to be implanted inside or in proximity to the medical implant, the command input device is adapted to receive commands from a user as voice commands, the commands stored in the memory unit include voice commands, the processing device comprises a filter for filtering input received via the command input device, the filter is adapted to filter, compensate, or filter and compensate, for received voice commands against the background of high frequency losses caused by the mammal body, the filter is adapted to filter, compensate, or filter and compensate, for received voice commands against the background of frequency distortion caused by the mammal body, the processing device is adapted to deliver filtered and compensated voice commands as input to the command generator which is adapted to compare received voice commands to voice commands stored in the memory unit, and if said comparison yields a likeness, to generate a corresponding command and communicate it to the medical implant, and said filter is adapted to filter received voice commands against the background of high frequency losses and frequency distortion caused by the mammal body based on the specific position of said command input device inside the body.
