BCI Driving FES and Hand Orthosis for Upper Limb Rehabilitation in Chronic Stroke

EEG-based brain-computer interface detecting the patient's EEG sensorimotor rhythms associated to attempted reach-gasp-release upper limb movements by the patient.

Fake (Sham) EEG-based brain-computer interface which outputs a decision at random about whether EEG sensorimotor rhythms associated to attempted reach-gasp-release upper limb movements by the patient are currently detected.

Neuromuscular stimulation of several upper limb muscles (elbow extensors, hand extensors/flexors) to effectuate reach, grasp and release movements of the affected upper limb.

Active hand orthosis effectuating reach, grasp and release movements of the affected uppe r limb.
