Abstract :
We develop image signal transmission based on wireless intra-brain communication by implanting a micro-imager. Transmission characteristics of signal through a brain phantom are measured. We report the basic characteristics of an implantable micro-imager and an experiment on digital image signal transmission through the brain phantom using the image sensor.
