Abstract

Implantation of prosthetic devices designed to complement the function of the human brain is a rare but well recognized innovative treatment for some patients. If this technique is to become clinically useful special attention will have to be paid to the bio-engineering requirements of the prosthesis-brain interface.

FFT-based digital tactile vocoder system for real-time use.

A microprocessor-based real-time digital vibrotactile vocoder system has been developed to train the deaf and for artificial hearing research. The system is composed of a microcomputer module with a digital signal processor, interface units and an attenuator/driver circuit. Live or digitised (stored or synthetic) speech is presented to the skin spectrally through a belt housing eight or 16 vibrators. Speech is processed in real time using a fast Fourier transform. The system is also capable of presenting any arbitrary spatiotemporal pattern on the skin for artificial hearing experiments. A preliminary experiment with a deaf subject indicates that the system is potentially an effective device for artificial hearing.
