PROVIDING MENTAL CONTROL OF POSITION AND/OR GESTURE CONTROLLED TECHNOLOGIES VIA INTENDED POSTURES

Neural signals of a subject intending certain postures can be decoded and a controllable device can be commanded to perform certain actions based on the decoded intended postures with a system, and method of use thereof, including a brain machine interface (BMI) device. The system also includes electrodes in communication with the subject's nervous system to record the neural signals and the controllable device, both in communication with the BMI device. The BMI device can store instructions and previously calibrated neural activity patterns for the certain postures and a processor for receiving the neural signals, pre-processing the neural signals, decoding the neural signals into neural activity patterns, and matching the neural activity patterns to the previously calibrated neural activity patterns. If a match is determined, then the BMI device can send a command, previously linked to the intended posture, to the controllable device to perform the action.
