Can transcranial direct current stimulation enhance performance of myoelectric control for multifunctional prosthesis?

Pattern recognition based myoelectric control has been studied by many researchers. However, the classification accuracy was pretty low for amputees towards multifunctional prosthesis control in practice. In this work, a novel method of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) which can modulate brain activity was used to enhance performance for myoelectric prosthesis control.
