Abstract
Spinal cord injuries, stroke, and neurodegenerative diseases can disrupt motor pathways, causing severe loss of mobility and independence. NeuroLink-X proposes an implantable brain–body neural interface that restores connectivity by decoding cortical activity, bypassing damaged pathways, and delivering stimulation to muscles or spinal neurons. Unlike external prosthetics, NeuroLink-X is designed as a fully implantable, adaptive, closed-loop system that leverages AI-driven decoders and functional electrical stimulation to re-establish voluntary motor control. This article outlines the system’s architecture, methodology, and potential applications, supported by current advances in brain–computer interfaces and neuroprosthetics.
