Restoring sensorimotor function in individuals with severe paralysis remains an important challenge in the field of medicine. Here we show, for the first time, an individual with severe upper-limb sensorimotor impairment can interact with real-world objects through another individual using an implanted brain-computer interface (iBCI) and wireless muscle activation, while also engaging in cooperative rehabilitation. This human avatar paradigm enabled the iBCI study participant to generate motor ...
