ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a motion compensation system for a visual prosthesis to adapt a visual image to movement of a user's eyes and head. The system includes a camera providing a video signal, an eye movement tracking device, a head movement tracking device, and a video processing unit processing the video signal and correcting the video signal for eye and head movement. The corrected video signal is sent to an implanted neural stimulator including electrodes stimulating visual neurons to create a perception of the video image.
