Introduction
The rising use of active neural implants and bi-directional brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) in translational and investigational therapeutical research and medical applications is emerging in today's neuroscientific landscape. Fully implantable neural interfaces and BCI devices must provide a broad range of technical flexibility, long-term implantation potential, and medical safety to the user and to patients to meet the complex requirements for potential medical applications. The system employed here meets the aforementioned requirements: recording configuration choice, open- and closed-loop stimulation functionality, flexible electrode type choice, inherent safety features and biocompatible materials.
