BCI devices may be attached to robotic exoskeletons or functional electrical stimulation systems, enabling individuals to move in ways they wouldn't otherwise be able to. But what kind of disabilities can it assist with?
1) Loss of movement (paralysis and weakness)
Hemiparesis (one side of the body weakness) or hemiplegia (paralysis of one side of the body) are among the most frequent results of a stroke. BCI systems operate through recording brain signals connected with motion and converting them into actions within the real world. Stroke survivors, with appropriate Stroke Rehabiliation, can use their arms, hands, and even legs more normally, so doing everyday things becomes simpler.
2) Difficulty with hand and finger control
Stroke patients often have difficulty with fine motor skills, such as gripping, writing, or handling utensils. BCI-based rehabilitation from recoveriX can retrain the brain through the use of neurofeedback and robots to enhance hand functionality. Some BCI systems use virtual reality (VR) to simulate hand movements, allowing the brain to ‘practice’ actions even before physical recovery is achieved.
3) Speech and communication issues
Aphasia results when certain strokes hit the brain's language centers, making speech or the ability to understand speech challenging. In certain instances, BCI systems can convert brain activity into written words or spoken language through AI-driven speech synthesis.
4) Walking and balance issues
Recovery of walking after a stroke is difficult, but BCI can be used to retrain the motor pathways of the brain. By linking brain activity with exoskeletons or electrostimulation devices, Bci in Stroke Rehabilitation can enable stroke patients to take control of their lower limbs again and better maintain their balance, becoming more independent.
