Neural Interface Design

Designing neural interfaces involves setting up and programming devices that allow to control external objects (computer, household appliances, prostheses, etc.) by using physiological features of a human brain, such as electrical signals of biological neurons. Qualified specialists in this field are engaged in the development of interfaces compatible with a human nervous system for controlling computers, virtual and visual objects, taking into account the psychology, and physiology of users.

The technology is most widely used in medical field for neurological diagnostics, rehabilitation and prosthetics.
