Brain implants, also known as neural implants, are devices that are surgically implanted into the brain to monitor, stimulate, or modify brain activity. They are used in the field of neurology to treat a variety of neurological disorders, such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, and depression. Brain implants can be used to monitor brain activity, to stimulate the brain to produce certain signals, or to modify the brain's activity. Brain implants are typically made of biocompatible materials, such as titanium, and are designed to be minimally invasive. They are connected to a computer system, which can be used to monitor and control the implant's activity. The implant is typically powered by a battery, which is implanted along with the device. Brain implants are used in a variety of medical applications, including the treatment of neurological disorders, the control of seizures, and the stimulation of the brain to improve cognitive function. They are also used in research to study the brain and its functions. Some of the companies in the brain implant market include Medtronic, Abbott, Boston Scientific, St. Jude Medical, and NeuroPace.
