Safety and effectiveness considerations for clinical studies of visual prosthetic devices.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The various parameters that define a hand movement such as its trajectory, speed, etc, are encoded in distinct brain activities. Decoding this information from neurophysiological recordings is a less explored area of brain-computer interface (BCI) research. Applying non-invasive recordings such as electroence...
