Summary :

In this letter, we study on the sensitivity to the electrical stimulus pulse for biomedical electronics for the purpose to make a tactile vision substitution system for binds. We derive the equivalent circuit of finger by measuring sensitive voltages with various touch condition and various DC voltage. And we consider to the sensitivity of finger against electrical stimulus pulse. In order to convert the sense of sight to tactile sense, we consider four types of touch condition and various types of pulse. It is shown that the sensitivity of finger to electrical stimulus pulse is determined by duty-ratio, frequency, hight of pulse and the type of touch condition. In the case that duty-ratio is about 20%, frequency is within about 60-300Hz and touch condition is A-4 type, the sensitive voltage becomes the lowest. With this result, a tactile vision substitution system can be developed and the system will be used to transfer various infomations to blinds without paper.
