Publications

Peer-reviewed publications, conference papers, and protocols from CARSS consortium members that are relevant to OpenNerve components.

Not every entry below concerns a component that has shipped, or binds to a specific hardware revision. Several describe sensors or leads still under development by consortium members. Read each paper's own scope before citing it as evidence for a specific OpenNerve component or revision.
