Research Abstract |
The interindividual variation of brain signals that are used in brain machine interface (BMI) are large. Therefore, BMI system forces the long time BMI training on the subjects. We studied whether neuromodulation could change the brain signal for BMI. Neuromodulation can change the cortical excitability and might support brain signal for BMI system. Moreover, our results indicate that neuromodulation increase the BMI signals in patients with amputation that are candidates for BMI system in the future.
