Horch, Kenneth W. | Control of ankle position using neural feedback | This paper describes a closed loop control system that uses afferent neural activity from muscle spindle fibers as feedback for controlling ankle position. The gastrocnemius muscle was stimulated through a dual channel intrafascicular electrode implanted in a fascicle of the tibial nerve. Dual cha... | Neuromuscular stimulation; Peripheral nerve; Joint angle | 1994 |

Horch, Kenneth W. | Differential activation of nerve fibers with magnetic stimulation in humans | Earlier observations in our lab had indicated that large, time-varying magnetic fields could elicit action potentials that travel in only one direction in at least some of the myelinated axons in peripheral nerves. The objective of this study was to collect quantitative evidence for magnetically in... | Magnetic stimulation; Peripheral nerve; Electromyographic potential; Somatosensory potential | 2006 |

Horch, Kenneth W. | Identification of single units in multi-unit recordings from peripheral nerves | We are developing a computer-based method for identifying individual action potentials in multi-unit peripheral nerve recordings. Threshold level, sinusoidal stimuli are used to elicit phase-locked activity from single units. These action potentials are digitized, and a template is constructed usin... | Peripheral nerve; Neural recordings; Cutaneous mechanoreceptors | 1988 |

Horch, Kenneth W. | Information extraction from peripheral nerves | This work is directed toward providing better rehabilitation for people suffering from somatosensory loss and paralysis due to spinal cord injury, head trauma, or stroke. The goal of this project is to demonstrate that information suitable for controlling prosthetic devices, modulating functional el... | Peripheral nerve; Neural recordings; Intrafascicular electrodes | 1991 |

Horch, Kenneth W. | Intrafascicular electrodes for nerve stimulation | We have designed a new type of intrafascicular, implanted electrode for stimulating peripheral nerves to elicit muscle contraction. The electrode requires low current to stimulate the nerve fibers, provides a fine control of muscular force, and causes little or no tissue reaction. it is of potential... | Intrafascicular electrodes; Peripheral nerve; Neural recordings | 1988 |

Horch, Kenneth W. | Towards a neuroprosthetic arm | Evidence indicates that user acceptance of modern artificial limbs by amputees would be significantly enhanced by a system that provides appropriate, graded, distally referred sensations of touch and joint movement, and that the functionality of limb prostheses would be improved by a more natural co... | Neuroprosthetic arm; Peripheral nerve; Neuroprosthetics; Amputee | 2006 |
