Join Us, In Saving Lives And Engineering The Future
We are a diverse team of talented people who are dedicated to building technology that radically improves human lives.
The CereStim is a fully-programmable, 96-channel neurostimulator that delivers a wide-ranging and highly stable output current with an intuitive set-up and operation.
The CereStim R96 is a fully programmable, current-controlled, Neuro-Stimulator with 96 output channels and the capability of producing up to 16 simultaneous stimuli. The biphasic current pulses generated by the CereStim R96 are intended to stimulate the neurons in proximity to a set of either implanted micro electrodes or surface contacting macro electrodes depending on configuration.
The CereStim R96 in the macrostimulator configuration can generate up to 16 simultaenous stimuli from 100 microamps to 10 milliamps with adjustment in 100 microamp increments. Each stimulus can be directed to any one of the 96 electrode connections on the CereStim. The CereStim R96 macrostimulator is intended to be used with electrode grids or strips having an impedance of less than <1kOhm.
The CereStim stimulates on a shielded and isolated circuit up to 96 channels when using the Y-Adapter to virtually eliminate noise during stimulation.
Extensively tested in IRB-approved human studies, Blackrock can provide the necessary safety-test data to obtain IRB approval.
The CerePort R96 stimulator is an investigational device intended for use in laboratory animal research or in human clinical investigations conducted under an Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved protocol and, when required, under an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) in accordance with FDA regulations.
