The operating principle of the ultra-micro scalp electrode array is shown in fig. 9, and when the ultra-micro scalp electrode array module descends, the head of the ultra-micro scalp electrode can pass through the hair on the scalp surface to reach the scalp surface because the head of the ultra-micro scalp electrode is tiny and the body is slender.

Although the contact area between each of the ultra-micro scalp electrode heads and the scalp is very small, the array formed by a plurality of ultra-micro scalp electrodes in the ultra-micro scalp electrode array module can equally share the pressure of the ultra-micro scalp electrode array on the scalp, and the spring also buffers the impact of the ultra-micro scalp electrode heads on the scalp, so that the damage and uncomfortable feeling on the surface of the scalp can not be caused.
As shown in fig. 1, the cortical magnetic signal writing unit is composed of a plurality of stereotactic magnetic head arrays 3-B which are positioned in the helmet shell and composed of stereotactic magnetic heads, and the connecting wires of each stereotactic magnetic head are gathered to a helmet data wire 4-5 and connected with upper equipment. As shown in FIG. 6, the stereotactic head array 3-B is placed on the surface of the scalp corresponding to the somatosensory center 2-K of the cerebral cortex, and the low frequency magnetic field generated by the stereotactic head array can penetrate the scalp and the skull to act on the somatosensory center 2-K.

The stereotactic magnetic head shell adopts high magnetic permeability materials (such as permalloy, aluminum and the like) to shield a direct current magnetic field and a low-frequency alternating current magnetic field, thereby preventing the mutual influence of magnetic fields generated by adjacent stereotactic magnetic heads. The pulsed magnetic field coil is used to generate a pulsed magnetic field (e.g., the magnetic induction lines generated by the pulsed magnetic field coil are shown as 2-B in fig. 11). The pulse magnetic field guide post is made of metal, so that the pulse magnetic field poles are distributed along the longitudinal axis direction of the guide post, the lower end of the guide post is in an inverted cone shape, and the magnetic induction linear density can be controlled. The magnetic field stereotactic control coils are uniformly distributed in a circular ring shape, the generated magnetic fields are circular ring-shaped (as 2-A points in fig. 11 are magnetic induction lines generated by the stereotactic control coils), the magnetic field formed by each control coil and the pulse magnetic field formed by the pulse magnetic field coil are the same in polar direction on the longitudinal axis, so that the two magnetic fields are mutually exclusive, when the pulse magnetic field formed by the pulse magnetic field coil passes through the magnetic field circular ring formed by the plurality of control coils, the pulse magnetic field formed by the pulse magnetic field coil is compressed into a cone shape with the downward tip, the pulse magnetic field energy density is concentrated at the cone tip (as 2-C points in fig. 11), and the shape of the pulse magnetic field formed by the pulse magnetic field coil is changed by adjusting the strength of the magnetic field generated by the control coil, so that the 2-C points can move up and down in the longitudinal axis direction of the pulse magnetic field coil, and the stereotactic purpose is realized. The energy intensity of the pulse magnetic field formed by the pulse magnetic field coil just can enable the cerebral cortex nerve cells positioned at the point to generate the membrane potential (point 2-C in fig. 11), and the energy intensity of other parts of the magnetic field can not reach the threshold value of the cerebral cortex nerve cells for generating the membrane potential, so that the cell electric activity of the cerebral cortex functional area corresponding to the point can be accurately controlled by adjusting the position of the point in the cerebral cortex. The magnetic field guiding conical ring is a reverse trapezoidal ring with wide upper part and narrow lower part, the inner hole of the upper part of the ring is larger than the inner hole of the lower part of the ring, the ring is made of materials with high magnetic permeability (such as permalloy, aluminum and the like) and is used for shielding a direct-current magnetic field and a low-frequency alternating-current magnetic field, and the magnetic field generated by the pulse magnetic field coil is guided out from the inner hole of the ring; while shielding the magnetic field of the stereotactic control coil from leaking. The pulsed magnetic field coil support plate is used for supporting and fixing the pulsed magnetic field coil, is made of plastic materials, and does not affect the magnetic field. The magnetic field stereotactic control coil bracket disc is used for supporting and fixing the magnetic field stereotactic control coil, is made of plastic materials, and does not influence the magnetic field. The pulse magnetic field coil connecting lead 2-D is used for connecting the pulse magnetic field coil and the pulse magnetic field coil control unit, and the outside of the pulse magnetic field coil connecting lead is wrapped with an electromagnetic shielding rubber layer to prevent electromagnetic interference inside the three-dimensional directional magnetic head. The magnetic field stereotactic control coils 2-E are used for connecting the magnetic field stereotactic control coils and the magnetic field stereotactic control coil control units, the magnetic field stereotactic control coils are connected in series through stereotactic control coil connecting wires 2-F, and the connecting wires are wrapped with electromagnetic shielding rubber layers to prevent electromagnetic interference inside the stereotactic magnetic head. The pulse magnetic field coil is connected with the lead 2-D, and the stereotactic control coil is connected with the lead 2-E, and the lead enters the lead outer sleeve 2-G and is led to upper equipment.
The three-dimensional directional magnetic head array 3-B is a dense array formed by a plurality of three-dimensional directional magnetic heads 3, and the magnetic field intensity, the pulse frequency and the magnetic field polar direction generated by the pulse magnetic field coil of each three-dimensional directional magnetic head are independently regulated and controlled by the pulse magnetic field coil control unit; the magnetic field intensity and the magnetic field polar direction of each stereotactic control coil are independently regulated and controlled by a magnetic field stereotactic control coil control unit. Thus, a stereotactic head array will produce complex pulsed magnetic fields that can be localized, coded, and matched to the neural electrical activity of the targeted cortical neural cell population.
The invention can be connected with the operation control system and the sensory control system to realize the control function of the bidirectional neural network. The multifunctional human brain computer interface helmet collects brain somatic motion center through the ultramicro scalp array on the scalp surface to generate electric signals, and the electric signals are amplified by the signal amplifier, converted into digital signals through the analog-to-digital converter and transmitted to the motion control system (upper equipment) through the signal transmitter.
