One man who experimented with a version of this technology based on an oscillating coil once gave a  lecture at a Urodynamics Society meeting where he injected papaverine into his penis to demonstrate that the  compound could cause erections.
One man who experimented with a version of this technology based on an oscillating coil once gave a  lecture at a Urodynamics Society meeting where he injected papaverine into his penis to demonstrate that the  compound could cause erections. That version of this technology was developed by Giles Brinkley and it was  applied to a 52 year old woman with receivers attached to her body. The patient Jerry was the test subject of  a series of experiments into this technology using platinum wires conducted by William Dobelle. These  devices are used to treat RP and AMD. The Argus II device of this type consists of a pair of glasses which  transmits information to an array of electrodes implanted in the patient. For 10 points, name this technology that  gives some relief to certain types of blindness.
