Researchers reconstruct 3-D hand movement using brain signals

Friday, March 19, 2010 - 10:30 in Mathematics & Economics

Researchers have successfully reconstructed 3-D hand motions from brain signals recorded in a non-invasive way, according to a study in the March 3 issue of The Journal of Neuroscience. This finding uses a technique that may open new doors for portable brain-computer interface systems. Such a non-invasive system could potentially operate a robotic arm or motorised wheelchair - a huge advance for people with disabilities or paralysis...
