Development of an Implantable Optical Neuroprosthetic: System Intergration and Testing

Abstract

This report contains the final progress report of the project entitled "Development of an implantable optical neuroprosthetic: System integration and testing." We have completed all goals set out in the application. 1. We have redesigned and build the microscope body to be lighter weight. 2. We designed and build the mounting hardware for attaching the microscope to the head of a rodent. 3. We have designed and build the camera head with associated PC boards to house and power the imaging chip. 4. We have redesigned, built and tested a new imaging chip based in silicon and sapphire. The results of this work is presented.
