Figure 3: Representations of augmentation pathways
BCIs have initial use cases across the spectrum, some of which may then lead sequentially or directly to uses for augmentation.

- Repaire.g. prosthetic limb control
- Treate.g. post-stroke rehabilitation to drive recovery
- Assiste.g. exoskeleton to help complete daily tasks
- Optimisee.g. improving movement quality
- Augmente.g. strength or precision outside the population range
- Adjacent use cases
- Leapfrog use cases
