“…Therefore, it is not surprising that ideomotor training variants (motor imagery, MI) were in demand in reha bilitation medicine [28], including various auxiliary techniques, such as screens and virtual reality spaces [29]. The idea for using in post stroke rehabilitation is simple: to use a multiply repeated voluntary effort to activate at least the portion of cortical neural systems that is associated with the planning, if not perfor mance, of a particular movement and thus preserve the existing or consolidate a new cortical composition of a motor act.…”

The brain-computer interface (BCI) technology, based on the registration and interpretation of EEG, has recently become one of the most popular developments in neuroscience and psychophysiology. This is due not only to the intended future use of these technologies in many areas of practical human activity, but also to the fact that BCI is a completely new paradigm in psychophysiology, which allows testing hypoth eses about the possibilities of the human brain to the development of skills of interaction with the outside world without the mediation of the motor system, i.e., only with the help of voluntary modulation of EEG generators. This paper examines the theoretical and experimental basis, the current state, and the prospects of development of training, communicational, and assisting complexes based on BCI to control them without muscular effort on the basis of decoding mental commands detected in the EEG of patients with severely impaired speech and motor system.
