An insulating sidewall around passivation openings blocks electrical, fluid, and gas ingress while keeping implant feedthroughs usable.
Glass substrate and cover with metal feedthroughs hermetically seal a retinal prosthesis chip while reducing wire count and supporting dense electrodes.
Patient feedback drives an implanted DBS controller to auto-adjust stimulation parameters, reducing clinic fitting time and improving therapy tuning.
A pre-cured PVA ring swells and self-adheres after implantation to seal body chamber openings and avoid repeat procedures.
Electrical discharge forms predefined micro-electrode beads on wire ends, avoiding tedious soldering while improving probe assembly precision.
