Popis: | High-density electrocorticography (ECoG) arrays are promising interfaces for high-resolution neural recording from the cortical surface. Commercial options for high-density arrays are limited, and historically tradeoffs must be made between spatial coverage and electrode density. However, thin-film technology is a promising alternative for generating electrode arrays capable of large area coverage and high channel count, with resolution on the order of cortical columns in the functional surface unit of a human gyrus. Here, we evaluate the sensing performance of a high-density thin-film 128-electrode array designed specifically for recording the distributed neural activity of a single human cortical gyrus. We found robust field potential responses throughout the superior temporal gyrus evoked by speech sounds, and clear phonetic feature selectivity at the resolution of 2 mm inter-electrode distance. Decoding accuracy improved with increasing density of electrodes over all three patients tested. Thin-film ECoG has significant potential for high-density neural interface applications at the scale of a human gyrus. |
