Whether they’re being used for research or for restoring lost capabilities to the disabled, brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) show a lot of promise. They could soon be much more effective, thanks to the development of tiny new sensors.Continue ReadingCa… Continue reading Tiny implants could dramatically improve brain-computer interfaces
After more than a decade of development researchers at UC San Francisco have demonstrated, for the first time, a brain implant turning neural activity into full words. The first participant in the trial, a paralyzed man in his 30s, can now speak with a… Continue reading First ever thought-to-speech brain implant successfully trialed

Researchers from the New York University School of Medicine have developed a brain implant designed to detect pain sensations in real-time and deliver bursts of pain-relieving stimulation. The device is still deeply experimental but a new proof of conc… Continue reading Experimental brain implant instantly detects and relieves pain
When someone is paralyzed from the neck down, it goes without saying that they can no longer write words out by hand. They can still think about doing so, though, and those thoughts could allow them to type out messages via a new brain-computer interfa… Continue reading BCI lets paralyzed users quickly type text, by imagining writing it
A novel device designed to help stroke patients recover wrist and hand function has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Called IpsiHand, the system is the first brain-computer interface (BCI) device to ever receive FDA market ap… Continue reading First ever FDA-approved brain-computer interface targets stroke rehab
Elon Musk’s startup Neuralink has shown off the latest version of its brain-machine interface, which a monkey uses to wirelessly play Pong with its mind. The demonstration is both another step forward for the ambitious company and a fascinating look at… Continue reading Elon Musk’s Neuralink has a monkey play Pong with its mind
Machines that connect to the human brain to gather and interpret its electrical signals have wide-ranging potential, from enabling paralyzed people control over robotic prostheses to supplementing human intelligence so it keeps pace with artificial int… Continue reading Groundbreaking implant wirelessly relays brain signals in high fidelity
Brain-machine interfaces are one of those incredible ideas that were once the reserve of science fiction. However, in recent years scientists have begun to experiment with primitive forms of the technology, even going as far as helping a quadriplegic c… Continue reading Scientists read minds of monkeys using new ultrasound technique
Coming later this year, the Cognixion ONE headset is promising something extra on top of the regular augmented reality experience: a brain computer interface (BCI) that can turn thoughts into commands for the device.Continue ReadingCategory: Wearables,… Continue reading Cognixion ONE launches this year with brain-controlled AR
