OBJECTIVES

This document aims at providing an overview of the existing and developing standards in the field of neurotechnologies for brain‐machine interfacing. It is mainly focused on systems that provide a closed‐loop interaction with artificial devices based on information extracted from measures of the activity in the nervous systems.

In addition to reviewing the most current standardization efforts, this document also reports on the current opinions on the topic as collected by an online survey conducted with members of the community and presents some recommendations on the perceived priorities for standardization.

This document is the outcome of discussions within the group and general public feedback. Despite efforts to comprehensively cover the current situation regarding standardization efforts, we are conscious of the fast‐paced development of these technologies and expect this to be a living document that will be enriched by public inputs as new information is available.
