"It's really the size of the probes that is the differentiator. We could mount them on the head with [a camera] because the headstage is integrated. Everything's just really small... And the four shank electrodes are just perfect for us. Because their depth is the same depth as visual cortex, the four of them span across the region. So that's the other thing is there's much more flexibility of the designs; there's different types of geometries that you can get."
