In this study, we investigated predicting lower limb muscular activities of monkeys during standing and squatting motions using neuronal spikes in primary motor cortex M1. Finite impulse response models were built for prediction. Acute electrode arrays were used to collect neuronal spikes in the lower limb representation area of M1 in the left hemisphere, and electrodes were implanted to the right...
Whether there is neural regeneration after spinal cord injury (SCI) is a challenging scientific and clinical research topic. Extensive research efforts have been devoted to identify effective neural repair strategies to limit further neural damages following spinal cord injury and promote axonal regeneration and sprouting for recovery of voluntary functions. However, little information or effort has...
In neuroprosthetic systems, decoding based on a sparse population of task-related neurons is impractical because micro-electrode arrays often drift gradually in the cortex. Since the neuronal population being recorded from is dynamic, it is favorable to have a larger number of neurons containing information relevant to movement decoding and to decrease the relative importance of individual neurons...
A brain-computer interface (BCI) system such as a cortically controlled robotic arm must have a capacity of adjusting its function to a specific environmental condition. We studied this capacity in non-human primates based on chronic multi-electrode recording from the primary motor cortex of a monkey during the animal's performance of a center-out 3D reaching task and adaptation to external force...
A neural sensor with novel structure and capable of double side recordings has been designed and fabricated using surface micromachining technique. Dry-etch benzocyclobutene (BCB) was selected as the substrate and packaging material for its excellent electrical, mechanical and thermal properties. Positive photoresist (AZ4620) was used as the sacrificial layer during the formation of backside recording...
