Abstract


This review provides a comprehensive exploration of the intersection between biomechanics, motor control, and Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs). Focused on unraveling the insights derived from the amalgamation of these domains, the paper synthesizes current research and innovations. It delves into the biomechanical intricacies involved in translating neural signals into precise and rapid physical actions, a crucial aspect of BCI functionality. By examining studies at the intersection of neuroscience, biomechanics, and BCI technology, the review sheds light on the mechanisms governing motor control within the context of neural signal decoding. The paper also explores the practical implications of these insights for optimizing BCI performance in various applications, ranging from neuroprosthetics to assistive technologies. By offering a comprehensive overview, this review aims to provide researchers, clinicians, and engineers with a nuanced understanding of the current state of knowledge in biomechanics and motor control within the realm of BCIs, paving the way for future advancements and applications in this dynamic field

Keywords
