The invention relates to a spatially adaptive, implanted microcontact structure
for neuroprostheses suitable for treating functional disorders of the nervous system
for the purpose of reversible anchorage on nerve tissue. The spatially adaptive
microcontact structure (RAM) is characterized in particular in that an optimum
contact or active connection to nerve tissue is ensured. The implanted microcontact
structure comprises subareas that are movable relative to one another and that
can be brought into at least two permanent desired positions relative to one another
and that can be brought into a desired position during implantation for the purpose
of mechanical anchorage to the nerve tissue to be contacted and can also be brought
out of one desired position into another during explantation to release the anchorage.
