How responsive approaches enable personalized therapies Neuromodulation can be an effective treatment for a variety of neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, traumatic brain injuries, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (Swann et al., 2018). Electrical stimulation impulses are transmitted to the nerve tissue either in an open or closed treatment circuit (open und closed
The use of electrodes in the peripheral nervous system requires mechanical and electrical stability as well as the gentlest possible handling of the nerve. In order to meet these requirements, we have developed a special contact shape for our °AirRay Cuff electrodes.

For our vision to build active implants for recording and stimulating of brain activity, we have developed most of the technological components ourselves – such as our °AirRay electrodes. The manufacturing process offers flexible design options and has evolved over the years.
