Abstract: Various embodiments provide a method for processing a stimulation signal. The method may include monitoring an output voltage on an electrode, the electrode being provided with the stimulation signal; determining whether the output voltage is lower than a threshold voltage; if it is determined that the output voltage is lower than the threshold voltage, modifying the waveform of the stimulation signal; and providing the modified stimulation signal to an object via the electrode.
