This paper is concerned with the design, sensing and control of a robotic prosthetic eye that moves horizontally in synchronization with the movement of the natural eye. Two generations of robotic prosthetic eye models have been developed. Theoretical issues on sensor failure detection and recovery, and signal processing techniques used in sensor data fusion are studied using statistical methods and artificial neural network based techniques. In addition, practical control system design and implementation using micro controllers are studied and implemented to carry out the natural eye movement detection and artificial robotic eye control tasks. Simulation and experimental studies are performed and the results are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of the research project reported in this paper.
