The main problem underlying this mandate is that brain neuromodulation parameters with current tDCS do not lend themselves to individualized adjustment. The resolution of this problem through the realization of this mandate consists in the design of a hybrid device – tXCS – offering modulation of transcranial stimulation parameters, to optimize the beneficial effect of neuromodulation. The ultimate aim is to introduce neuromodulation into the living environment, as a contribution to functional task-oriented daily rehabilitation, via a serious game, and centered on the person suffering from fibromyalgia.
