# Non-Invasive BCI **Entity class:** Technology, method, or technical system **Domain:** Brain-Computer Interfaces / Neurotechnology **Doc Type:** Concept Node **Maturity:** Established and Evolving **Related:** [[Brain-Computer Interfaces]], [[Electroencephalography]], [[Magnetoencephalography]], [[Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy]], [[Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging]] --- ## Definition A **non-invasive brain-computer interface** acquires brain-related signals without penetrating the skull or implanting an intracranial device. Common modalities include EEG, MEG, fNIRS, and fMRI. ## Standards context [[wiki/ISO-IEC TS 27571-2026|ISO/IEC TS 27571:2026]] specifies basic data elements, metadata, naming, and an extensible modular structure for non-invasive BCI data. Non-invasive access generally reduces surgical risk while trading away some spatial resolution, temporal resolution, signal strength, or portability depending on modality. ## Neurotech cluster route **Collection:** [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]] **Source articles:** [[articles/The Architecture of Continuity and Emerging Neuroinformatics Standards|The Architecture of Continuity and Emerging Neuroinformatics Standards]] · [[articles/The Organic-Synthetic Brain Atlas|The Organic-Synthetic Brain Atlas]] ## Relationships **Related nodes:** [[wiki/ISO-IEC TS 27571-2026|ISO-IEC TS 27571-2026]] [[wiki/Non-Invasive BCI|Non-Invasive BCI]] is related to [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]] through [[articles/The Architecture of Continuity and Emerging Neuroinformatics Standards|The Architecture of Continuity and Emerging Neuroinformatics Standards]] and [[articles/The Organic-Synthetic Brain Atlas|The Organic-Synthetic Brain Atlas]]. <!-- BEGIN HUMANIZED RELATIONSHIPS 2026-09-11 --> This entry is routed through [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]].
