Electrolysis-based Parylene Balloon Actuators for Movable Neural Probes [PDF]
In order to track a specific neuron and keep good sampling neural signals during chronic implantation, the neural probes are highly desired to have moving capability.

A quantitative taxonomy of human hand grasps [PDF]
Background: A proper modeling of human grasping and of hand movements is fundamental for robotics, prosthetics, physiology and rehabilitation. The taxonomies of hand grasps that have been proposed in scientific literature so far are based on qualitative ...

Microstimulation-evoked neural responses in visual cortex are depth dependent
Background: Cortical visual prostheses often use penetrating electrode arrays to deliver microstimulation to the visual cortex. To optimize electrode placement within the cortex, the neural responses to microstimulation at different cortical depths must ...

Neural Prostheses for Reaching
Advancements in the understanding of the primate motor system and improvements in recording technology have revitalized the idea of a neural prosthesis for restoring motor deficits in paralyzed patients. Several research groups have demonstrated the feasibility of such a brain–computer interface (BCI) by decoding reach movements online in monkeys and ...

Bridging larger gaps in peripheral nerves using neural prosthetics and physical therapeutic agents
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,

Sharing of hand kinematic synergies across subjects in daily living activities [PDF]
The motor system is hypothesised to use kinematic synergies to simplify hand control. Recent studies suggest that there is a large set of synergies, sparse in degrees of freedom, shared across subjects, so that each subject performs each action with a ...
