The ability to conduct stable, high resolution recording and stimulation within the brain is critically important to the development of technologies that interface electronics with the human body. Devices that interface directly with the brain are increasingly important in brain research, medical monitoring, treatment of neurological diseases or the enormous increase in brain-machine interface technologies. Carbon Cybernetics have developed a high-density neural recording and stimulation array that employs fine carbon fibres as the electrode material. We aim to show that this array can record from the brain indefinitely, without loosing signal quality, and the same array can be used to stimulate the brain to recreate memories or sensations.

在大脑内进行稳定、高分辨率记录和刺激的能力对于开发电子设备与人体接口的技术至关重要。直接与大脑连接的设备在大脑研究、医学监测、神经疾病治疗或脑机接口技术的巨大增长中变得越来越重要。碳控制论已经开发出一种高密度神经记录和刺激阵列，它使用精细的碳纤维作为电极材料。我们的目标是证明这种阵列可以无限期地从大脑进行记录，而不会损失信号质量，并且相同的阵列可以用来刺激大脑重建记忆或感觉。
