Background: The visually impaired can now experience a kind of sight thanks to the latest advance in implant technology from Traxes BioElectronics. Traxes’s newest invention looks like an ordinary metallic headband.
In reality it is a sophisticated sensory motion system that feeds imput directly into the user’s brain. When worn, the device “paints” a three-dimensional sonic graph of the user’s surroundings. The result is a crystal clear (if black and white) image of the recipient’s environment.
