| Research Abstract |
There exist diverse and extensive neurophysical and biomechanical investigations into the relation between brain activity and various dynamical and/or kinematic aspects of correlated movements. One of the goals of these studies is to interpret the motor control mechanisms of the central nervous system computationally and to make a brain machine interface (BMI). Recently, there have been many studies concerning the reconstruction of arm movements from neuron activity recorded from the primary motor cortex or from multiple frontal and parietal cortical. The artificial arm made reaching and grasping movements on a computer screen driven only by the monkeys' thoughts. Despite these successful experiments, there still remains considerable work to be done before a smart BMI system can be realized. The most recent BMI systems are able to reproduce hand movements or computer cursor movements in a 2D or 3D space.
In this report, new signal processing method was developed for multilayer active array electrode for neuron activity in Brain and new motor control theory was proposed in which the motor examination was conducted without trajectory planning. Also new actuator which controlled the electrode position was made as a prototype.
