Augmenting rehabilitation robotics with spinal cord neuromodulation: A proof of concept.

Science robotics
Rehabilitation robotics aims to promote activity-dependent reorganization of the nervous system. However, people with paralysis cannot generate sufficient activity during robot-assisted rehabilitation and, consequently, do not benefit from these ther...

A new modular neuroprosthesis suitable for hybrid FES-robot applications and tailored assistance.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: To overcome the application limitations of functional electrical stimulation (FES), such as fatigue or nonlinear muscle response, the combination of neuroprosthetic systems with robotic devices has been evaluated, resulting in hybrid syst...

The efficacy of hybrid neuroprostheses in the rehabilitation of upper limb impairment after stroke, a narrative and systematic review with a meta-analysis.

Artificial organs
BACKGROUND: Paresis of the upper limb (UL) is the most frequent impairment after a stroke. Hybrid neuroprostheses, i.e., the combination of robots and electrical stimulation, have emerged as an option to treat these impairments.

Neurorobotics and neuroprostheses: Towards a new anatomy.

Anatomical record (Hoboken, N.J. : 2007)
The idea of this Special Issue arose from the technological advances in bionic, robotic, and neural rehabilitation systems and the common need to comprehend in detail how human anatomical structures can be replicated or controlled. Motor control theo...

An artificial spiking afferent nerve based on Mott memristors for neurorobotics.

Nature communications
Neuromorphic computing based on spikes offers great potential in highly efficient computing paradigms. Recently, several hardware implementations of spiking neural networks based on traditional complementary metal-oxide semiconductor technology or me...

Clustering Neural Patterns in Kernel Reinforcement Learning Assists Fast Brain Control in Brain-Machine Interfaces.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Neuroprosthesis enables the brain control on the external devices purely using neural activity for paralyzed people. Supervised learning decoders recalibrate or re-fit the discrepancy between the desired target and decoder's output, where the correct...

Control of a Robot Arm Using Decoded Joint Angles from Electrocorticograms in Primate.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Electrocorticogram (ECoG) is a well-known recording method for the less invasive brain machine interface (BMI). Our previous studies have succeeded in predicting muscle activities and arm trajectories from ECoG signals. Despite such successful studie...

Developing a Three- to Six-State EEG-Based Brain-Computer Interface for a Virtual Robotic Manipulator Control.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: We develop an electroencephalography (EEG)-based noninvasive brain-computer interface (BCI) system having short training time (15 min) that can be applied for high-performance control of robotic prosthetic systems.

A neurorobotic platform for locomotor prosthetic development in rats and mice.

Journal of neural engineering
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to develop a robotic interface capable of providing finely-tuned, multidirectional trunk assistance adjusted in real-time during unconstrained locomotion in rats and mice.
