TL;DR: The present electrode consists of three platinum plates mounted on a Dacron mesh backing, a design that has been demonstrated to be biocompatible and positionally stable in an animal model.
Patent
Low-cost, four-channel cochlear implant
TL;DR: A low-cost, four-channel cochlear stimulation system utilizes a completely passive, implantable receiver/electrode array that is inductively coupled to an external wearable processor as mentioned in this paper.
