Assessment of Neural Signals for the Control of Assistive Devices
University of Miami
Start Date
9/6/2024
Completion Date
12/31/2027
Summary
The study will investigate the use of motor intention-based cortical signals to trigger epidural spinal cord stimulation (ESCS) with individuals with SCI. Motor intention of UL tasks will be decoded using brain-computer interface (BCI) system based on cortical signals recorded using an Electroencephalographic (EEG) system or using their intracranially implanted devices Electrocorticographic (ECoG).
