CLANK
01.
What is a BCI?
A Brain-Computer Interface is a system that translates features of recorded neuronal activity into commands for a computer. Their potential role in helping overcome certain types of disabilities has been vastly explored in recent decades.
02
How does a BCI work?
Non-invasive BCIs typically consist of electrodes placed on a person’s scalp and electronic hardware that acquires and processes brain signals. Certain characteristic features of the processed signals are then mapped to actions on a computer, allowing the user to interact with its environment without moving.
03
What is CLANK?
CLANK is an ASU student organization proposal that aims to bring together people from diverse disciplines who are interested in developing a Brain-Computer Interface.
04
What does making a BCI require?
The making of a BCI requires collaborators from a wide range of fields of knowledge. A few important tasks, but by no means the only ones, are:
-
Circuit design
-
Signal processing
- Programming
-
Electrode placement and design
Would you be interested in joining?
CLANK is envisaged as an introduction to neural engineering in which most members will learn along the way. Regardless of your field of study or level of expertise, feel free to fill out the following form if you would like to take part. The consolidation of the initiative as a student organization will depend on the number of people interested in it.
