The Wicab BrainPort is a device that takes information gathered by a small digital camera in a pair of glasses and sends it to a "lollipop" electrode array that sits on your tongue. The device was designed to help people who are blind or who have extremely low vision. . . .

Although it seems incredible, the user's brain actually learns to interpret the tongue sensations as a kind of visual image. . . .
