Neural control of motor prostheses

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 2009
Neural interfaces (NIs) for motor control have recently become increasingly advanced. This has been possible owing to substantial progress in our understanding of the cortical motor system as well as the development of appropriate decoding methods in both non-human primates and paralyzed patients.

Neural prostheses and brain plasticity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neural Engineering, 2009
The success of modern neural prostheses is dependent on a complex interplay between the devices' hardware and software and the dynamic environment in which the devices operate: the patient's body or 'wetware'. Over 120 000 severe/profoundly deaf individuals presently receive information enabling auditory awareness and speech perception from cochlear ...

Validation of acoustic models of auditory neural prostheses [PDF]

open access: yes2013 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing, 2013
Acoustic models have been used in numerous studies over the past thirty years to simulate the percepts elicited by auditory neural prostheses. In these acoustic models, incoming signals are processed the same way as in a cochlear implant speech processor.

Bridging larger gaps in peripheral nerves using neural prosthetics and physical therapeutic agents [PDF]

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2019
Peripheral nerve injuries are relatively common and can be caused by a variety of traumatic events such as motor vehicle accidents. They can lead to long-term disability, pain, and financial burden, and contribute to poor quality of life. In this review,

An Insight into the acceptable use and assessment of lower-limb running prostheses in disability sport. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Sports technology can be any product or system used to facilitate, train or influence an athlete’s performance. The role of prostheses used for disability sport was initially to help facilitate exercise and then ultimately, competition.

Stand-Up, Squat, Lunge, and Walk With a Robotic Knee and Ankle Prosthesis Under Shared Neural Control

open access: yesIEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology, 2021
Emerging robotic knee and ankle prostheses present an opportunity to restore the biomechanical function of missing biological legs, which is not possible with conventional passive prostheses.

Neural prostheses

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2001
Assuming that neural regeneration after spinal cord injury (SCI) will eventually become a clinical reality, functional recovery will probably remain incomplete. Assistive devices will therefore continue to play an important role in rehabilitation. Neural prostheses (NPs) are assistive devices that restore functions lost as a result of neural damage ...
