Neurotechnology

Neurotechnology refers to the development and application of tools and devices that interact directly with the nervous system to monitor, modulate, or enhance brain and neural functions. It spans medical, scientific and consumer applications, from treating neurological disorders to improving cognitive performance and enabling human-machine interfaces.

Major Domains of Neurotechnology:

Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs)

  • BCIs enable direct communication between the brain and external devices, translating neural signals into commands.
    • Medical Applications:
      • Assisting individuals with paralysis or ALS to control prosthetic limbs, wheelchairs, or communication devices.
      • Restoring mobility in spinal cord injury patients via exoskeletons controlled by neural signals.
    • Consumer Applications:
      • Brain-controlled gaming and virtual reality.
      • Mind-controlled smart devices.

Neural Implants

  • Devices implanted in the brain or nervous system to restore or enhance function.
    • Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS): Used for Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, and severe depression. Electrodes deliver targeted electrical impulses to specific brain regions.
    • Cochlear Implants: Help restore hearing by directly stimulating the auditory nerve.
    • Retinal Implants: Aid vision in individuals with degenerative eye conditions by stimulating the retina or optic nerve.

 Neuromodulation Devices

  • Devices that stimulate or inhibit neural activity to treat various conditions.
    • Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS):
      • Non-invasive stimulation of the brain using magnetic fields.
      • Used to treat depression and anxiety.
    • Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS):
      • A low-cost, non-invasive technology used to modulate cognitive functions like attention and memory.
