Wireless Brain Implant Using a Telemetric Electrode Array System

The ability to monitor the activities of ensembles of single neurons is critically important in understanding the principles of information processing in the brain that underlie perception, cognition, and action. Multiple microelectrode recording using appropriate neuronal implants provides this ability. The Telemetric Electrode Array System (TEAS) project aims at developing and embedding a three-dimensional intra-cortical electrode array with all electronics required for signal acquisition, processing, and wireless communication entirely into the head.
