In the future, it could facilitate an even greater fusion between retinal implants and the human body.
A multinational group lead by Francesca Santoro, a researcher at Jülich, has created an intelligent biochip that effectively mimics the human retina, opening up new possibilities in bioelectronics.
The retina is a layer of neural tissue located at the back of the eye that plays a crucial role in the visual process. This key part of the eye is in charge of translating light into electrical signals that are transmitted to the brain, enabling us to see and understand images. It is this process that the new biochip recreates.
