Researchers have developed a BMI that allows primates to control a robotic wheelchair with their thoughts alone.
The anterior lateral motor cortex appears to play a significant role in context-based decision making.
The primary motor and primary somatosensory areas of the brain are involved in controlling immediate motor movements in real-time, while the premotor area appears to control planned, sequential movements as well as reacting to and adjusting the sequence when faced with unexpected changes.
