A craniode is positioned in an intra-osseous fashion, namely partly or wholly within the bone of the skull, without penetrating the interior of the skull, while also being positioned below the scalp. A craniode can be used to sense electrical signals from a brain, to electrically stimulate the brain, to emit light signals to the brain, to detect light signals from the brain, to perform functional near infrared spectroscopy on the brain, and to perform photobiomodulation on the brain; and can, for example, provide the ability to perform these procedures in daily life. To resolve the problem of connectivity, each craniode can be connected, or can be equipped with features that make it connectable, to a subcutaneous cable, thus enabling the long-term usage of the craniode in real-life settings; or, active electrodes can be used to transmit signals wirelessly. Transcutaneous and sub-scalp implantation techniques are also provided.
An intra-osseous device configured to at least one of sense electrical signals from a brain and electrically stimulate the brain, the device comprising:
