Implantable interface for neuroprosthetic-enabled hand grasp restoration in spinal cord injury
READ THE PAPER: https://bit.ly/3jJMNes
Brain-Computer Interfaces which translate internal electrical signals related to desired hand movement may be used to restore independence to patients with paralysis. In this work, Cajigas et al. demonstrate that a fully implanted interface can reliably decode motor commands using electrocorticography and can be deployed for home use. Such systems may provide means for self-driven portable rehabilitation and assistance.
