A company Wisconsin is developing a device that converts what you would see if you could see (being blind, I'm trying to say) into electrical signals fed to a user's tongue via a special "lollipop". A special electrode panel of the lollipop 'draws' images on the tongue by firing electric pulses on some of the pixels and not others, supposedly producing a feeling similar to a carbonated beverage.
With training, they assume, the blind user will 'see' images'.
