Abstract

Sensory substitution is an essential part of prosthetics. Rehabilitation of sensory feedback systems can considerably improve the quality of life for the disabled population. It can restore lost visual and auditory functions, and it can also enhance prosthetic limb activities by providing users with sensory feedback. The major purpose of this study was to examine prosthetic implants for auditory, olfactory, and tactile restorations. In addition, the research contributes to the literature database by discussing aspects that affect the efficacy of prosthetic sensory substitutes, as well as present technical limitations and future goals. In order to examine the current state of sensory rehabilitation utilizing prosthesis, a search of the UBC library's journal collection yielded 33 articles for this review. The title and abstract of relevant literature studies are reviewed. The complete text is then examined to confirm its legitimacy and summarize the necessary information. The finding suggests that sensory rehabilitation with prosthesis could considerably improve the quality of life for users. Tactile and visual rehabilitation are still in the research phase, although hearing prostheses have been widely adopted. Both tactile and visual substitutes require additional development prior to commercial entry. Additionally, training is typically necessary to maximize effectiveness. On the long-term effects of invasive sensory replacements, more research is required.
