NeuraViPeR
Neural active Visual Prosthetics for Restoring function
In this Horizon 2020 project, researchers from seven European organizations examine how the vision of visually impaired people can be restored using electrical stimulation of the brain. The aim of the project is to develop a neuroprosthesis with thousands of electrodes driven by adaptive machine learning algorithms for a new brain-computer interfacing technology.
