System for implanting wire electrode and method for operating same

The invention relates to a system for implanting an electrode wire and an operation method thereof, the system is used for implanting the electrode wire into the brain of a living body, and the system comprises an implanting device, a first light source, a second light source, a first camera, a second camera, a brain surface camera and a processing device; wherein the implanting device is provided with an implanting movement mechanism, and the implanting movement mechanism is designed to enable the implanting device to implant the electrode wire from different angles in different orientations.

What the filing appears to be about, read by published rules from its title, abstract and classification codes (A61B17/3403, A61B17/3468, A61B2017/00022, A61B2017/00398, A61B2017/00477). The claims define what a patent protects, and they are not read here.

Surgical access

A probe soft enough for the brain to tolerate is too soft to push in by hand, and each route into the head has its own risk. The problem behind it: placing many contacts exactly, without injuring tissue or vessels, in an operation short and repeatable enough to offer widely.

Interface and electrodes

Everything downstream works with what the contacts pick up. Their number, size and distance from the neurons set the ceiling on the signal. The problem behind it: more contacts, closer to neurons, that still record after years in tissue that reacts to them.

Implant electronics

An implant has room for very little, so functions that fill a rack in the laboratory have to fit on a chip. The problem behind it: fitting channel count, computing and safety functions into a volume and a heat budget the body accepts.

Why the layer matters to the field, not a judgement of this filing. A patent family shows that protection was sought. It does not show that the technology was built, is used in a product, or works in people. The whole stack

Dates as the offices published them. Office records are in the offices' own words and are a selection: refusals, lapses and withdrawals, and records that name an owner. Each concerns one member of the family, not the family as a whole, and another member in the same office may stand. Whether a patent is in force today is not assessed.
