Abstract
An interface or communications system for a neural probe, the interface or communications system comprising at least one probe interface, an optical communications interface and a processing system. The at least one probe interface is configured to interface with at least one neural probe so as to receive data collected by the probe. The processing system is configured to process the data from the at least one probe interface and provide the processed data to the optical communications interface. The optical communications interface is configured to communicate the processed data to a remote device, e.g. using optical wireless communications. The optical communications interface has the large bandwidth available that will allow the scaling up of recording sites from the neural probe without resulting in undue size, weight and/or power consumption.
