Long short-term memory (LSTM) neural networks to predict tremor signals

Researchers working for the EU Project EXTEND, in collaboration with the Technical University of Madrid (UPM), applied long short-term memory (LSTM) neural networks to predict tremor signals using kinematic data recorded from patients with essential tremor. The proposed LSTM-based models

EMG-based control of exoskeletons

From June 27th to June 30th 2022, researchers working for the EU Project EXTEND carried out experiments with incomplete spinal cord injury patients. In these experiments, real-time neural-based models were applied to control the exoskeleton Exo-H3 while patients walked, allowing

Experiments for the EXTEND Project

The final injectable implants developed by University Pompeu Fabra (UPF) and Fraunhofer-Institute for Biomedical Engineering (FhG-IBMT) were tested in humans for the first time. By using the EXTEND Bidirectional Hyper-Connected Neural Systems (BHNS) paradigm, we were able to perform muscle

Survey on the challenges towards the adoption of BCI technologies in rehabilitation.

Survey on the challenges towards the adoption of BCI technologies in rehabilitation.

The Institute of Philosophy (IFS) from CSIC presented the results of three in-depth interviews that were conducted with Spanish speaking individuals who had previously completed a survey as part of a larger, 3-country/language, survey on BCI perceptions. 11 out of
