Description
Through novel sensing and machine learning, researchers from Carnegie Mellon have been able to control a robotic arm with external sensors. According to Bin He, Trustee Professor and Department Head of Biomedical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, “There have been major advances in mind controlled robotic devices using brain implants. It’s excellent science,” says He. “But noninvasive is the ultimate goal. Advances in neural decoding and the practical utility of noninvasive robotic arm control will have major implications on the eventual development of noninvasive neurorobotics.”
