Abstract:

As a vital element in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology, sensors serve as the front devices for electroencephalogram acquisition and regulation. Among them, the minimally invasive cortical BCI sensors can attach epidurally or subdurally without penetrating into the brain tissue, ensuring the safe implantation. These sensors are typically employed to collect signals from specific cortical areas including movement, vision, and language, which open up possibilities for various brain functions and general applications like cortical rehabilitation, as well as the focus of scientific research and clinical application. Therefore, focusing on the current development status of minimally invasive BCI sensors in both business and research domains, and analyzing and looking forward to future technologies and application trends, can provide reference and inspiration for the academic and industrial fields of BCI.

Key words: brain-computer interface, sensors, minimal invasion, cortical electroencephalogram
