Current and Future Applications of Brain-Computer Interfaces
Brain-computer interfaces are used for medical applications in neurorehabilitation, brain assessment and neurosurgery and are brining new and powerful capabilities. Beside that the device got much smaller and more affordable so that they are es well used for computer games in various neuroscience applications.
Biography:
For over 24 years, I have been the Founder and CEO of g.tec medical engineering GmbH, a leading company in brain-computer interfaces (BCI) and biosignal processing. With a doctorate in Biomedical Engineering and GMP and ISO 13485 certifications, I have a strong background and expertise in BCI and neurotechnology.
My mission is to develop and produce high-end BCI hardware and software that can record and analyze brain activity in non-invasive and invasive ways. I aim to improve the quality of life and communication of people with motor impairments, such as stroke or ALS, and to advance the scientific and practical applications of BCI in various domains, such as neurorehabilitation, neuromarketing, brain mapping, and neuroprosthetics. I have also contributed to multiple patents and publications in the field, and I chair the BCI Award Foundation that recognizes outstanding achievements in BCI research.
As the head of g.tec, I also manage the sales and distribution of our products and services across the USA, Canada, and the APAC region, ensuring customer satisfaction and market growth. I am passionate about delivering the best BCI technology and service to our clients and partners around the world. I work with a talented and dedicated team of engineers, scientists, and sales professionals who share my vision and values. I am always eager to learn, innovate, and collaborate in the BCI and neurotechnology field.
