For his Hackaday Prize entry, [Ray Lynch] is building a tongue vision system, that will help blind people to see through one of the human brain’s auxiliary ports: the taste buds.
The concept of tongue vision has already been proven. Brainport, a tongue vision system invented by Paul Bach-y-Rita is already available to patients. However, what’s missing is a low-cost open-source hardware alternative that makes the technology available to patients who can’t afford the $10,000 product. [Ray] set …read more
