APPARATUS FOR DRIVING ARTIFICIAL RETINA USING MEDIUM-RANGE WIRELESS POWER TRANSMISSION TECHNIQUE
First Claim
1. An apparatus for driving an artificial retina using a medium-range wireless power transmission technology, wherein power is wirelessly supplied to an artificial retina circuit in a user'"'"'s eye by resonance between a first driver circuit equipped on a specific part of the user'"'"'s body and a second driver circuit implanted in the user'"'"'s eye.

Abstract
Provided is an apparatus for driving an artificial retina using a medium-range power transmission technique. The apparatus can wirelessly transmit power to an artificial retina circuit within a medium range of about 1 m using resonance between a first coil equipped around a user'"'"'s waist and a second coil implanted in a user'"'"'s eye. Thus, it is possible to solve the difficulty of implanting a coil in a lens, provide convenience to a user by eliminating the necessity of artificial glasses, and stably supply power to the artificial retina circuit. In addition, it is possible to remarkably lessen the difficulty in connecting the second coil with the artificial retina circuit in an eye.
