How Cochlear Implants Work
1. The Audio Processor
The microphones pick up sounds and convert them into signals that are sent to the implant.
2. The Implant
The cochlear implant converts the signals into electrical pulses and sends them to the electrode array.
3. The Electrode Array
The electrode array stimulates different areas of the cochlea.
4. The Auditory Nerve
The signals travel through the auditory nerve to the brain, where they are interpreted as sound.
