Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a technique to stimulate brain tissue directly through the skull. It works by sending a very high current pulse through a coil that is located on the subject's scalp. The fast-rising edge of the pulse induces a current in the brain tissue, causing neuron stimulation.

This device uses a capacitor bank, high current SCR, trigger circuit, figure-8 (or butterfly) coil, and high voltage charging circuit.

I achieved neuronal stimulation of my primary motor cortex by using a single 15-turn coil and 1700 volt charge on the capacitor bank of about 190uF. The exact position of the coil on my scalp makes a very big difference in how much stimulation is achieved in the motor cortex. I would have suspected the single coil would produce much more diffuse stimulation and positioning would not be so critical. I never got any decent neuronal stimulation with the butterfly coil.

This blog will contain descriptions of some of my favorite workshop techniques and projects. The subject area will include everything from woodworking to electronics to machining and project design.

Go there...

I find this interesting. Not because I have an Evil Mad Scientist, Lurking in the Other Side of my Brain... But, because I hope that one day, a way will be discovered to help Epileptics and others with Seizure Disorders. Along with the Conditions it is Presently used for. And maybe someone will discover how to directly communicate with Computers too...
