Abstract
Provided is an in vivo implantable nerve stimulation platform which includes: a light source emitting light having a plurality of wavelength bands; and a photoelectric generator generating electricity for stimulating a nerve or a tissue by the light emitted from the light source, in which the light source and the photoelectric generator are implanted in vivo.
Claims10
An in vivo implantable nerve stimulation platform comprising:
- a light source emitting light having a plurality of wavelength bands;
- and
- a plurality of photoelectric generators, each of which generates electricity for stimulating a nerve or a tissue by the light emitted from the light source,
- wherein the light source and the plurality of photoelectric generators are implanted in vivo,
- wherein the plurality of photoelectric generators are disposed spaced apart from each other,
- wherein each of the plurality of photoelectric generators generates electricity according to a wavelength or an intensity of the light emitted from the light source, or a a distance between the photoelectric generator and the light source,
- wherein a first photoelectric generator generates the electricity according to light having a first wavelength band or light having a first intensity, and a second photoelectric generator generates the electricity according to light having a second wavelength band or light having a second intensity.
