Preface

Neural interfaces interact directly with the central nervous system (CNS) or peripheral nervous system (PNS) to restore brain function impaired by neural diseases or trauma or to enhance motor or cognitive functions for the abled individuals. The technology interfacing the brain is also known as brain-computer interface (BCI) or brain-machine interface (BMI). While the cochlear prosthesis and deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease have become reality, other neural interface applications are yet fully matured for decades. However, in recent years we have witnessed the great advances in this field, and the advances in neuroscience and engineering are speeding up neural interface technolog
