Compact standalone platform for neural recording with real-time spike sorting and data logging

Abstract

The presented platform allows neural activity to be unobtrusively monitored and processed in real-time in freely behaving untethered animals-revealing insights that are not attainable through scheduled recording sessions. This system achieves the lowest power per channel to date and provides a robust, low-latency, low-bandwidth and verifiable output suitable for BMIs, closed loop neuromodulation, wireless transmission and long term data logging.
