EECoG may finally allow enduring control of a prosthetic or a paralyzed arm by thought alone (2/24/2011)

Washington University in St. Louis biomedical engineer Daniel Moran is developing brain-computer interfaces based on grids of electrodes that lie beneath the skull but outside the dura mater, the protective membrane that covers the brain. His next project is to slip a thin 32-electrode grid he designed with a colleague under a macaque's skill and to train the monkey to control -- strictly by thinking about it -- a computational model of a macaque arm. ...> Full Article



Enhanced brain-machine interface taps into additional senses (12/15/2010)

Enhanced brain-machine interface taps into additional sensesMonkeys moved thought-controlled computer cursors more quickly and accurately when provided with additional sensory feedback, according to a new study in the Dec. 15 issue of the Journal of Neuroscience While most brain-machine technologies rely only on visual feedback, this study demonstrated that these systems can be improved when users have additional input, such as a sense of the arm's position and motion, a sensation known as proprioception. ...> Full Article
