Talk Title: RatCar, Rattractor, and further – Brain-machine interfaces to control devices and bodies

Osamu Fukayama
Researcher

Host PI: Takafumi Suzuki

Abstract:
This talk first focuses on the brain-machine interfaces that I had developed before I moved to CiNet last year. They include RatCar where a rat brain controlled a vehicle, and Rattractor which modulated physical behavior of a rat. Then, I’d like to share my recent experiences in integrating neural information obtained with various modalities such as wire electrodes, ECoG, and EEG.
