SUBCUTANEOUS MULTICHANNEL WIRELESS EEG FOR CHRONIC HOME USE

Subcutaneous Multi-Channel Wireless EEG For Continuous Home Monitoring Overview It is increasingly recognized that for many patients, like those with epilepsy, it can be of paramount importance to record neural activity continuously, 24/7, over weeks and months. Yet, no clinically viable system exists. Currently, the principal diagnostic method for...

Context-Aware Self-Calibration for Autonomous Control of Assistive Devices

Overview Existing assistive devices for people with severe motor disabilities rely heavily on residual motor function. Recent brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), which decode neural activity directly from the brain, provide disabled persons with limited ability to autonomously control assistive devices. We have invented a neural interface system that...

iBCI System to Control Multiple Devices

Overview Until now, brain computer interface (BCI) systems have allowed people with paralysis to control only a single device, often under the guidance of a caretaker or secondary operator. Our novel BCI system enables users to control multiple devices, switching among them under their own volition. Market Opportunity Numerous intracortical...

Wireless Neural Probe to Communicate with Distributed Nodes

Overview Until now, neural probes required a full-device ecosystem to support probe communication, which limited the development of useful designs. Our invention uses near-field wireless communication and a flexible system architecture to simultaneously access multiple brain regions, allowing neuroscientists and clinicians to mix and match probes....

Commanding Electronic Devices from Discrete Neural Gestures

Overview We have developed a brain-machine interface for control of computers and other electronic devices through natural but virtual (imagined) gestures. A multistate discrete decoder detects neural activity evoked from natural hand gestures and maps them to commands for computer interaction. Market Opportunity Emerging brain-computer interface...

Giant Spin Hall Effect and Spin-Transfer-Torque Induced Switching in W/CoFeB/MgO with Perpendicular Magnetic Anisotropy

Giant Spin Hall Effect in Beta-Tungsten Overview Our invention uses a compound that mimics a natural peptide or protein, called a peptidomimetic compound, to treat neuronal injury. Administered prophylactically as soon as possible after injury, the compound is particularly effective in the case of stroke, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and...
