VISOR (Visual Instrument and Sensory Organ Replacement)

The VISOR is an advanced sensory prosthetic worn over the eyes that provides vision to individuals who are blind. Unlike simple visual prosthetics, the VISOR scans across the entire electromagnetic spectrum from radio waves through infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, and into X-ray frequencies.

The device directly interfaces with the wearer's brain through neural implants at the temples, translating electromagnetic data into visual information. While VISOR users can see far beyond normal human visual range—detecting heat signatures, seeing through certain materials, and identifying energy fields—the constant sensory input can cause discomfort or pain. Modern versions have improved comfort and processing, and many users eventually transition to ocular implants that provide similar capabilities with better integration.
