چکیده
Neuroprosthetics is a fast-growing area that brings together Biomedical Engineering and Neuroscience and seeks to interface the neural system directly to prostheses. The main goal is to restore motor, sensory, and cognitive functions. Neuroprosthetics is electrical stimulation technologies that replace or assist malfunctioned neuromuscular systems and attempt to restore normal body functions. These devices are either implanted or worn (like wristband or headband) on the body. Some of the examples include intramuscular stimulation system or implanted neuromuscular control. Neuroprosthetics has several applications; for instance, one class of neuroprostheses helps restore movement to paralyzed patients. Neural prostheses use Electroencephalography (EEG) and Electromyography (EMG) interfaces to bypass dysfunctional pathways in the nervous system by applying electronics to replace lost function. For example, cochlear implants use electronics to detect and encode sound and then stimulate the auditory nerve to allow deaf individuals to hear. It has several applications. Some of the major ones include Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) for motor control, brain activity monitoring for epilepsy prediction, and proprioceptive feedback for upper-limb prosthetics. This book brings the current trends and applications of state-of-the-art of Neuroprosthetics research.
