Invasive brain-machine interfaces

Brain-machine interfaces

In this talk, we will discuss the principles underlying extracellular recording of single neuron activity in the brain, spike sorting methods, and neural population signal decoding. We will show examples of invasive brain-machine interfaces in …

Creating a neuroprosthesis for active tactile exploration of textures

Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) of the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) can produce percepts that mimic somatic sensation and, thus, has potential as an approach to sensorize prosthetic limbs. However, it is not known whether ICMS could …

Stochastic Facilitation of Artificial Tactile Sensation in Primates

Artificial sensation via electrical or optical stimulation of brain sensory areas offers a promising treatment for sensory deficits. For a brain-machine-brain interface, such artificial sensation conveys feedback signals from a sensorized prosthetic …
