    Brain Computer/Machine Interfaces (BCI/BMIs) have substantial potential for enhancing the lives of disabled individuals by restoring functionalities of missing body parts or allowing paralyzed individuals to regain speech and other motor capabilities. Due to severe health hazards arising from skull incisions required for wired BCI/BMIs, scientists are focusing on developing VLSI wireless BCI implants using biomaterials. However, significant challenges, like power efficiency and implant size, persist in creating reliable and efficient wireless BCI implants. With advanced spike sorting techniques, VLSI wireless BCI implants can function within the power and size constraints while maintaining neural spike classification accuracy. This study explores advanced spike sorting techniques to overcome these hurdles and enable VLSI wireless BCI/BMI implants to transmit data efficiently and achieve high accuracy.Comment: Submitted to 37th International Conference on VLSI Design 202
