We have developed the first in a planned series of neural prosthetic interfaces that allow
multichannel systems to be assembled from single-channel micromodules called BIONs …

The graceful control of multiarticulated limbs equipped with slow, non‐linear actuators
(muscles) is a difficult problem for which robotic engineering affords no general solution. The …

The principles of human athletic training and physical rehabilitation therapy can be applied
to the horse, providing a reduction in discomfort and dysfunction associated with the various …

Materials and methods: We performed acute ex− periments in three 30− kg dogs. After LES
mano− metry, a 3.3 mm 28mm microstimulator (the Bion) was implanted into the LES …

Realistic models of neuromusculoskeletal systems can provide a safe and convenient
environment for the design and evaluation of controllers for functional electrical stimulation …

Micromodular electrical stimulators called BIONs/sup TM/(BIOnic Neurons) are injected into
paralyzed muscles to treat disuse atrophy. The small, narrow shape required novel solutions …

Artificial control of paralyzed or paretic muscles became a challenging field and lately an
important research topic, stimulated by the advances in technology. In this contribution …

Implantable biomicrosystems for restoring neuromuscular functions have gained more
attention for studying the characteristics of various types of neural interfaces. In our previous …

Natural biological control involves the normal functioning of the living organism (ie human
body) to regulate its parameters such that the vital functions are kept within the normal …
