Neural rehabilitation based on brain computer interface

BCI is a newly developed technology that can be used for neurological rehabilitation of brain injuries and paralysis. This article first reviews the history of BCI, and then introduces two major neurorehabilitation BCI technologies for neurorecording and neuromodulation, invasive and non-invasive. For each technology, we describe the challenges of each technology, analyzing the current state and future development trends. In terms of non-invasive technology, the most mature and extensive EEG brain signal analysis methods and two brain regulation technologies, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial electrical stimulation (tES), as well as the application of brain signal analysis techniques such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy fNIRS) were also discussed. In terms of invasive technology, the implantable neural interface technology focuses on implantable neural interface technology, which collects cortical electrical brain signals (ECoG), which can obtain more original neural information and has high temporal and spatial resolution characteristics. In recent years, with the development of microelectronics technology and material technology, invasive BCI technology has made a lot of cutting-edge progress, which is an important future development direction of neurorehabilitation technology.
