Brain-Machine Interface to Control a Prosthetic Arm with Monkey ECoGs during Periodic Movements

Brain Machine Interfaces (BMIs) are promising technologies to rehabilitate the function of upper limbs in severely paralyzed patients. We succeeded in developing a BMI prosthetic arm for a monkey implanted with electrocorticogram (ECoG) electrodes and trained in a reaching task. It had stability in...
