A brain-machine interface instructed by direct intracortical microstimulation

Brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) establish direct communications between the brain and artificial actuators. As such, they hold considerable promise for restoring mobility and communication in patients suffering from severe body paralysis. To achieve this end, future BMIs must also provide a means fo...
