ABSTRACT:
A method and system for sensory prostheses are disclosed, particularly with respect to implanted auditory prostheses and implanted visual prostheses both of which function as artificial receptors. The method and system are utilized to provide prostheses that use sensory codes which simulate the natural sensory code for recognition and identification which has been found to be the integral of the temporally dispersed receptor signal. Speech recognition is improved by incorporating temporal dispersion into cochlear prostheses and visual pattern reognition is improved by manintaining current levels below those needed for detection.
