Abstract

Focusing on one of the most signi cant stimulus types that we encounter in our daily lives, we present and compare several methods to represent freely moving humans in prosthetic phosphene vision via realistic simulations and behavioural experiments. The results show that AI-powered methods only out-perform the baseline (edge detection) when classifying multiple people. Be- sides that, two of the three proposed representations used signi cantly less phosphenes than the baseline which is bene cial in real life scenarios. Although there is much room for further im- provement, this experiment is a proof of concept that AI-powered representations can enhance the vision generated by VCPs.
