Investigating How BCIs Can Help Paralyzed Patients Regain Movement

Introduction

Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) represent a groundbreaking technology that enables direct communication between the brain and external devices. This innovation has significant implications for paralyzed patients, offering potential pathways to regain movement and improve quality of life.

Understanding Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs)

BCIs operate by interpreting neural signals from the brain, which can then be translated into commands for external devices. This technology typically involves:

• Neural Signal Acquisition: Electrodes capture brain activity, often through non-invasive methods like EEG or invasive methods like implanted electrodes.
