Consciousness in mixed systems: merging artificial and biological minds via Brain-Machine Interface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The rapidly developing field of Brain-Machine Interface (BMI) technology seeks to establish a direct communication-and-control channel between human brain and machines. Practical applications for BMI include restoration of lost vision and motor functions,

EVIDENCE-BASED RECOMMENDATION OF A POWERED KNEE FOR TRANSFEMORAL BONE-ANCHORED PROSTHESES: A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY

open access: yesCanadian Prosthetics & Orthotics Journal
BACKGROUND: A transfemoral bone-anchored prosthesis (TF-BAP) can be fitted with non-microprocessor-controlled knees (N-MPKs), or with microprocessor-controlled knees, which can be passive (P-MPKs) or active (A-MPKs).
