Abstract:
The invention provides a retinal prosthetic method and device that mimics the responses of the retina to a broad range of stimuli, including natural stimuli. Ganglion cell firing patterns are generated in response to a stimulus using a set of encoders, interfaces, and transducers, where each transducer targets a single cell or a small number of cells. The conversion occurs on the same time scale as that carried out by the normal retina. In addition, aspects of the invention may be used with robotic or other mechanical devices, where processing of visual information is required. The encoders may be adjusted over time with aging or the progression of a disease.

Claim (Index 14):
The method of  claim 13 , wherein the encoder is configured such that the Pearson's correlation coefficient between a test input stimulus and a corresponding stimulus reconstructed from the encoded data that would be generated by the encoder in response to the test input stimulus is at least about 0.35.
