  • Abstract
    The goal of the CLINATEC® Brain Computer Interface (BCI) Project is to improve tetraplegic subjects´ quality of life by allowing them to interact with their environment through the control of effectors, such as an exoskeleton. The BCI platform is based on a wireless 64-channel ElectroCorticoGram (ECoG) recording implant WIMAGINE®, designed for long-term clinical application, and a BCI software environment associated to a 4-limb exoskeleton EMY (Enhancing MobilitY). Innovative ECoG signal decoding algorithms will allow the control of the exoskeleton by the subject´s brain activity. Currently, the whole BCI platform was tested in real-time in preclinical experiments carried out in nonhuman primates. In these experiments, the exoskeleton arm was controlled by means of the decoded neuronal activity.
