Taste and See

Hello Friends

Welcome to INNOVATIVE BLOG today I am going to share one of the new upcoming technology which is going to be a boon to blind people and its name is 

Brain Port V100

  

This device helps blind people to see the world with the help of their tongue.

What is BrainPort V100

It is an oral electronic vision that provides electro-tactile stimulation to aid profoundly blind patients in orientation, mobility, and object recognition as an adjunctive device to other assistive methods such as the white cane or a guide dog.

How it Works

It consists of a pair of dark glasses and tongue-stimulating electrodes connected to a handheld battery-operated device. When cameras in the glasses pick up visual stimuli, software converts the information to electrical pulses sent as vibrations to be felt on the user’s tongue.Users feel moving bubble-like patterns on their tongue which they learn to interpret as the shape, size, location and motion of objects in their environment.

Who Developed BrainPort V100

BrainPORT V100 has been developed by BrainPort Technologies, Wicab Inc. U.S.A. For more details regarding availability, price and other information refer to this link BrainPort V100.
