Methods and systems to interface between physiological devices and a prosthetic device, including to receive a plurality of types of physiological activity signals from a user, decode a user movement intent from each of the plurality of signals types, and fuse the movement intents into a joint decision to control moveable elements of the prosthetic device.

Multi-modal neural interfacing for prosthetic devices

Systems, computer readable media, and method concern includes generating data renderings for a data set. The data renderings for the data set include one or more of visual renderings of portions of the data set and one or more sonic renderings of portions of the data set. The method further includes providing the data renderings to a user via one or more output devices. The method also includes capturing biofeedback data from the user using one or more human interface devices. The biofeedback data includes biological responses to the one or more data renderings. Further, the method includes continuously generating and providing new data renderings based on the biofeedback data. The new data renderings incorporate features in the data renderings identified from the biofeedback data. The method also includes determining one or more features of interest in the data set based on the biofeedback data and the new data renderings.

Systems and methods for human-machine subconscious data exploration

A method of controlling a device relative to one or more objects in an environment of a user employing the device may include receiving a volitional input from the user indicative of a task to be performed relative to an object with the device, receiving object targeting information associated with interaction between the device and the object where the object targeting information is presented in an augmented reality context, integrating the volitional input with the object targeting information to determine a control command to direct the device to interact with the object, and providing the control command to the device.
