Next generation closed-loop brain-machine interfaces

我们的合作伙伴Carbon Cybernetics已经开发出高密度的神经记录和刺激阵列，采用细碳纤维作为电极材料。该项目的目的是利用这些材料的特性来开发微型可植入设备，这些设备能够在大脑内实现长期、闭环、高分辨率的记录和刺激。我们的目标是展示一种先进的神经功能控制算法。直接与大脑连接的设备在神经科学中越来越重要，以了解大脑如何处理信息，创造记忆和自我意识，对开发将电子设备与人体连接的技术至关重要。

Our partners Carbon Cybernetics have developed high-density neural recording and stimulation arrays that employ fine carbon fibres as the electrode material. The aim of the project is to exploit the properties of these materials to develop miniature implantable devices that are able to achieve long-term, closed-loop, high-resolution recording and stimulation within the brain. We aim to demonstrate an advanced algorithm for control of neural function. Devices that interface directly with the brain are increasingly important in neuroscience to understand how the brain processes information and creates memories and self awareness and are critically important to the development of technologies that interface electronics with the human body.
