TL;DR: In this article, a method for efficient multiplexing of a plurality of electrodes in a nerve stimulator using improved, predetermined, regular, repeatable geometric patterns arranged in a predetermined mosaic to form a desired array is described.

TL;DR: Using whole-cell patch clamp recordings of rabbit RGCs, a technique is demonstrated to prevent the spiking response depression and it is shown that this response depression was not caused by inhibition arising from the retinal network but, instead, by a stimulus-frequency-dependent decline of RGC voltage-gated sodium current.

TL;DR: This article begins by reviewing retinal modeling strategies and existing models, then discusses in detail the significance and limitations of these models, and provides suggestions for the future development of retinal neural modeling.

TL;DR: This paper proposes an approach for selecting power-efficient signal features such that the minimum desirable fall detection accuracy is assured, providing a power saving of 75.3%, while limiting the error rate of a binary classification decision tree fall detection algorithm to 7.1%.

TL;DR: High density feedthroughs have been developed which allow for the integration of chip-scale features and electrode arrays with up to 1141 stimulating sites to be located on a single implantable package, and ceramic-Pt constructs are shown to have acceptable biological properties.
