Abstract
A system and method for capturing a neural signal inside a patient's skull, transmitting it to a remote receiver, and using it to control an application. A plurality of skull screws is inserted on the skull and under the scalp, and the skull screws are connected to a transmitter. The differential potential between two skull screws are detected, amplified, and transmitted to a receiver connected to a computing device. The computing device checks for the signal's voltage level and duration before using it for controlling the application.
