Abstract :
Blindness is the most serious ailment that people suffer. The main motive to build Bionic eye is to copy human eye neural circuit, it aims at restoring the lookout vision to people living with blindness and low vision. In this paper a fuzzy adaptive visual processing method is used to get the function similar to neurostimulator. This technology helps to restore vision to blind people by linking Information Technology and Biotechnology and providing stimulation of visual cortex of brain electrically. It describes the formulation of artificial vision system and gives the working of neurostimulation model of artificial silicon retina, and overcomes the drawbacks of system available at present. At the end the strategy is applied to the real bionic eye system based on the model and the performance of the system is measured with the help of lot of experiments which conforms the vision to blind people.
