"Seeing through the tongue- scientists give sight to the blind..."
A camera translates images into electrical pulses, which are applied
to the tongue through small electrical diodes. Touch sensitive nerves
are stimulated and the brain interprets these pulses as the image.
Tested... and apparantley working.

“We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of the dream.
Wandering by lone sea breakers, and sitting by desolate streams. World
losers and world
forsakers, for whom the pale moon gleams. Yet we are movers and the
shakers of the world forever it seems.”
