Abstract
Optogenetic retinal prosthesis is promising a new technique aiming to restore vision to those with disorders of the retina. However, to restore mobility and scene recognition to the patients, the transferred visual information to these patients should be optimized. In this paper we present a processing scheme to simplify and spatially compress the visual scene prior to transfer to the retina prosthesis.
