A Portable Wireless DSP System for a Brain Machine Interface

Abstract

In this paper, we present a design for a wearable DSP system that is capable of processing various neural-to-motor translation algorithms. The system first acquires the neural data through a high speed data bus in order to train and evaluate our prediction models. Then via a widely used protocol, the low-bandwidth output trajectory is wirelessly transmitted to a simulated robot arm. This system has been built and successfully tested with real data
