Transformative Reality: Augmented reality for visual prostheses (with Dennis Lui, Damien Browne, Lindsay Kleeman and Wai Ho Li)

Visual prostheses such as retinal implants provide bionic vision that is limited in spatial and intensity resolution. This limitation is a fundamental challenge of bionic vision as it severely truncates salient visual information. We propose to address this challenge by performing real time transformations of visual and non-visual sensor data into symbolic representations that are then rendered as low resolution vision; a concept we call Transformative Reality.
