This article provides complete documentation for purchasing, constructing, programming, and operating a Pneumatic Arm Truss. The PAT supports a two-degree FOM pneumatic arm for inclusion in the BMI Workbench.
System Operation
Startup
Inspect T-35HD Air Compressor Filter. Rinse with soap & water as necessary.
Inspect T-35HD air tank for water (valve on bottom of tank). Tilt tank and drain [...]
Goals
My goal for Spring 2008 is to construct an executable neural model that will translate a simulated-biological system’s angular requirements (preferred directions) into plausible neural signals as recorded by invasive electrodes. The simulator will accomplish its goal by uniting pre-existing fractal and neural simulation tools into a cohesive package to construct an executable 2-dimensional neural [...]

SenseLab
The SenseLab Project (hosted by Yale University) is a long term effort to build integrated, multidisciplinary models of neurons and neural systems, using the olfactory [...]
This programming guide is intended to be a primer for novices attempting to run the NEURON simulator. Complete programming references, tutorials, and other documentation may be found on the author’s site.
Getting Started
NEURON may be downloaded from http://www.neuron.yale.edu/neuron/install/install.html for Linux, MSWin (95 and up), and Mac OS X 10.4. NIL is running NEURON within the [...]
Weekly Progress Report for 06 – 13 July, 2007
The purpose of this memo is to summarize this week’s developments in both N.I.L. research and lab infrastructure.
N.I.L. Research (Motor Cortex)
Description
I am developing the motor cortex vi (motorCortex.vi) component of the NIL Workbench. The purpose of this routine is to take as input the system’s angular [...]
Brain machine interface development has historically been hindered by slow prototyping due to the reliance on either expensive, labor-intensive animal experimentation or the static data obtained through such means. This work develops a Motor Cortex Simulator (MCS) that augments popular neural simulators by constructing complete motor cortex modules via fractal methods.
The MCS is unique in [...]
