Silicon Retina with Ganglion Cell Spiking Outputs as Neural Prosthesis
Around 2006, researchers developed a silicon retina implemented as an analogue VLSI chip that modelled four primary retinal ganglion cell types and generated 3,600 spiking outputs, designed as a neural prosthesis matched to the physical dimensions of the biological retina.
