Brain-Machine Interfaces: From Basic Science to Neuroprostheses and Neurorehabilitation. (2017, background): “One study (791) employed peripheral nerve cuff electrodes implanted in two patients with arm amputation for more than 1 yr.”
Biomimetic Intraneural Sensory Feedback Enhances Sensation Naturalness, Tactile Sensitivity, and Manual Dexterity in a Bidirectional Prosthesis. (2018, neutral): “experience achieved interesting but limited results in terms of sensitivity and naturalness (Graczyk et al., 2016; Tan et al., 2014).”
Man/machine interface based on the discharge timings of spinal motor neurons after targeted muscle reinnervation (2017, methodology): “The only exception is the signal-based mapping for simultaneous and proportional control of multiple degrees of freedom based on principal component analysis (PCA) (experiment 3), for which we used the full extended estimated sources (as in equation (3)) as input.”
Restoring motor control and sensory feedback in people with upper extremity amputations using arrays of 96 microelectrodes implanted in the median and ulnar nerves (2016, methodology): “Recent studies have shown modulation of stimulation intensity with a time-variant pulse width results in more natural evoked perceptions [45] and employing these methods may improve the quality of percepts produced by microelectrodes.”
