Opis

While the creation of a bionic man may still be far into the future, neural prostheses are rapidly becoming viable for patients with injury or disease of the nervous system. This book explores the recent advances in neural prosthetic techniques and applications. It details some of the most successful sensory and motor prosthetic devices available and then examines the growing field of brain-implantable devices for the control of artificial prosthetic devices or neural prosthetics.
