2011 Jahresbericht | Fachartikel Retina-Implantat (en/de)
ASIC Development and Test for a Retinal Implant cessor and Retina Stimulator. A camera integrated into spectacles records images of the environment, which are transfered by a Internal RF link, processor into stimulation signals for UHFWLᎦHU DQG EXᎥHU the optical nerve. An optical interface, reaching from the spectacles via the pupil into the inner part of Stimulator the eyeball, transfers the information to the Retina Stimulator. There, the data is handed over to the optical nerve. This way, the patient can learn to recognize…

Semiconductor-based biochips for on-site veterinary diagnosis Test card equipped with an ASIC capable of analysing aqueous solutions applied directly to the chip. Photograph: IMMS. Objectives 50 Regular health testing of farm animals is a necessity for high-standard food supplies. Up to now, veterinary diagnosis has been possible only after several days or even weeks because it has been necessary to send off samples to a laboratory where they are prepared for and subjected to microbiological analysis. In cases where a…
