Joel W. Burdick Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Bioengineering B.S., Duke University, 1981; M.S., Stanford University, 1982; Ph.D., 1988. phone: 626-395-4139; secretary: 626-395-3385 |
| Artificial Systems, Robotics Our research group covers both
Robotics and BioEngineering. Current topics of interest include:
Neural Prosthetics and Brain-Machine Interfaces. A neural prosthesis
as a "direct brain interface" that enables a human, via the
use of surgically implanted electrode arrays and associated computer
decoding algorithms, to control external electromechanical devices
by pure thought alone.
