Retinal Prosthesis

Annual Review of Biomedical Engineering, 2005
▪ Abstract  Retinal prostheses represent the best near-term hope for individuals with incurable, blinding diseases of the outer retina. On the basis of the electrical activation of nerves, prototype retinal prostheses have been tested in blind humans and have demonstrated the capability to elicit the sensation of light and to give test subjects the ...

A Subvision System for Enhancing the Environmental Adaptability of the Powered Transfemoral Prosthesis

IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics, 2020
Visual information is indispensable to human locomotion in complex environments. Although amputees can perceive the environmental information by eyes, they cannot transmit the neural signals to prostheses directly. To augment human–prosthesis interaction,

Penile Prosthesis Implantation

Urologic Clinics of North America, 2001
The development of effective systemic therapy for the treatment of erectile dysfunction has resulted in a significant increase in the number of men presenting for treatment. Not all men with erectile dysfunction will respond to systemic therapy; those who fail may be candidates for penile prosthesis implantation if second and third lines of treatment ...

Design, development, and testing of a lightweight hybrid robotic knee prosthesis

Int. J. Robotics Res., 2018
We present a lightweight robotic knee prosthesis with a novel hybrid actuation system that enables passive and active operation modes. The proposed hybrid knee uses a spring-damper system in combination with an electric motor and transmission system ...
