人机共生：脑机接口行业专家会议 20250518 Q&A 脑机接口技术的基本概念是什么？它的分类和应用场景有哪些？ 脑机接口技术是将大脑活动与外部设备直接连接，通过捕捉和解码大脑信号， 将人的意图和思维转化为计算机可以识别的指令，实现人和机器之间的交互。 脑机接口分为单向和双向两种类型。单向接口通过读取大脑信号来控制外部设 备，而双向接口则可以对大脑进行信号传输，进行刺激。主要应用场景包括神 经退行性疾病调控、瘫痪患者辅助等。 • 中国脑机接口技术发展紧随美国，但存在 1-2 年差距，主要体现在资金投 入、供应链资源和芯片开发速度上。国内企业如脑虎科技、南微医学等从 低通道产品起步，逐步追赶国际领先水平。 • 脑机接口应用场景广泛，医疗端包括疾病治疗和功能替代，消费端包括大 脑状态监测和人机交互。非侵入式手段在注意力训练、情绪调整和助眠等 领域有望率先实现规模化落地。 • 医保政策的出台旨在支持脑机接口产业发展，但湖北省制定的嵌入式脑机 接口费用指导价可能偏低。监管重点在于安全性和有效性，通过严格临床 试验驱动医疗器械开发，并逐步完善监管条例。 脑机接口技术的发展现状及市场规模如何？ 摘要 • 脑机接口技术商 ...
