Intracortical BCI Performance is Robust to Changes in Attentional Load During Dual-Tasking
High performance intracortical brain-computer interface (iBCI) control has been demonstrated in research settings, but performance can still vary within and between sessions. One potential source of this variability is the change in attentional load that comes from processing naturally occurring distractors such as thoughts, sounds, fatigue, or pain. To improve the consistency of iBCI performance in real-world environments where this sort of multi-tasking is inevitable, we must understand how s…
