Overview of MOTE and its envisioned implementation. Ideally, MOTEs can be implanted into a subject without hindering subject’s freedom of motion. Because a MOTE is optically powered, and transmits the measured neural signals optically as well, the subject needs to be optically accessible, similar to in imaging. In this figure, a mouse on a trackball is shown as an example where the mouse can move almost freely while overhanging optics provide the power as well as signal detection.
