This document discusses cognitive and emotional neuroprostheses and BCI research organizations and trends. It covers volitional prostheses that retrieve neuron activity related to action planning to control prosthetics. Memory prostheses address brain damage causing memory loss by replacing damaged hippocampal cells. Neurofeedback trains subjects to control brain activity using visual/auditory feedback. Major BCI research organizations including HUMAINE, BBCI and Neurobotics are described along with their goals of developing technologies related to emotion, BCI devices, and combining neuroscience and robotics.
