  • Abstract
    Artificial retinas have been ardently desired to recover the sight sense for sight-handicapped patients. In our study, we have proposed an artificial retina using poly-Si TFTs. In this presentation, the real-time detection is confirmed. It is found that the response time is less than sub-second, which is sufficiently fast for application of artificial retinas.
