BCI Device for Hand Rehabilitation

LIFESCAPES Medical BCI is a neurorehabilitation medical device designed to support hand and finger training for people with motor impairment, including those with impairment following stroke or spinal cord injury (SCI). The headset measures biosignals from the scalp. When the system detects a signal pattern associated with the user’s intended hand movement, it activates a robotic orthosis and neuromuscular electrical stimulation to provide synchronized movement and sensory feedback. Through repetitive training, the device is intended to maintain, develop, or restore muscle strength in the fingers and other areas. In Japan, LIFESCAPES Medical BCI is certified as a Class II medical device. Regulatory status, approved indications, and availability vary by country.

How BCI Links Motor Intention to Feedback

During motor imagery or attempted hand movement, a headphone-style headset measures biosignals from the scalp and wirelessly transmits the data to a tablet. When the software detects a signal pattern associated with the intended movement, the robotic orthosis assists finger movement while neuromuscular electrical stimulation provides sensory feedback. This synchronized feedback is intended to help the patient associate motor intention with the resulting movement.

Clinical Evidence in Subacute and Chronic Stroke

Reports from a convalescent rehabilitation hospital that has implemented medical BCI show that patients who underwent BCI training for two weeks (10 days, 40 minutes per day) experienced significant improvement in hand motor function compared to other patients who did not undergo BCI training. 76.9% of severe paralysis patients who received BCI training were able to transition to moderate-level training after their BCI sessions (Takahashi et al., 2025).
