Abstract

Brain-computer interface (BCI) is an innovative method of integrating technology for healthcare. Utilizing BCI technology allows for direct communication and/or control between the brain and an external device, thereby displacing conventional neuromuscular pathways. The primary goal of BCI in healthcare is to repair or reinstate useful function to people who have impairments caused by neuromuscular disorders (e.g., stroke, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, spinal cord injury, or cerebral palsy). BCI brings with it technical and usability flaws in addition to its benefits. We present an overview of BCI in this chapter, followed by its applications in the medical sector in diagnosis, rehabilitation, and assistive technology. We also discuss BCI’s strengths and limitations, as well as its future direction.
