  • Multi-electrode stimulation generated unique phosphenes.
  • The number of possible phosphenes exceeded the number of electrode contacts.

Conclusions:

  • Spatial and temporal interactions in stimulation are crucial.
  • Exploiting these interactions may enhance epiretinal prosthesis performance.
