Abstract
Objective:To complete the working principle design and prototype construction of the Chinese multichannel vestibular prosthesis (CMVP) with independent intellectual property rights, and verify its working performance, so as to lay the foundation for the clinical promotion and application of CMVP. Methods:On the basis of previous research, the working principle of CMVP was constructed based on the information encoding principle of vestibular nervous system, and the circuit was designed according to the principle. Then, appropriate electronic components and software systems were selected to construct a CMVP prototype according to the design. Finally, the input and output characteristics of the CMVP prototype were verified through the performance test. Results:In the present study, a block diagram of the working principle of the CMVP was successfully designed and drawn, and the working principle was explained in detail according to the block diagram. Further, the circuit diagram of the CMVP was designed and drawn based on the working principle, then the selected electronic components and software systems were combined one by one to complete the construction of a prototype. Finally, the performance test for the prototype was completed, which showed that all stimulus electrodes of the prototype could output biphasic pulse current, and the frequency of biphasic pulse current was modulated by the spatial rotation data input sensed by a motion sensor. Conclusion:The working principle and circuit design of the CMVP are reasonable; the CMVP prototype in China has been successfully constructed; the spatial rotation motion sensing input and the modulated pulse current output are stable and reliable.
