Augmental’s MouthPad turns a retainer-like device into an unexpectedly expressive interface. Tomás Vega went to Neuralink, ...

Elon Musk co-founded Neuralink in 2016 to develop brain-machine interfaces. The first product — the N1 implant — focuses on allowing patients with paralysis to control computer cursors with their mind ...

A team of brain specialists at the California Institute of Technology has developed a brain–computer interface (BCI) approach to decode words "spoken" entirely in the brain by recording signals from ...

When someone loses the ability to speak because of a neurological condition like ALS, the impact goes far beyond words. It touches every part of daily life, from sharing a joke with family to simply ...

Engineers have created a brain-computer interface that doesn't require calibration for each user, paving the way for widespread clinical applicability. Imagine playing a racing game like Mario Kart, ...

The number of people with electrodes in their brains is believed to have more than doubled in the last couple of years. This week, I covered the story of Casey Harrell—a man with ALS who is “the first ...

One day in the future, we may interact with our electronic devices not with physical input or even voice commands, but simply by thinking about what we want to do. Such brain–computer interfaces (BCIs ...

Thinking 'Get good' and making it so?

A brain computer interface (BCI) is a neural device that translates a person’s brain activity into external responses or directives. For example, a BCI can allow someone who is paralyzed to direct a ...

Engineering researchers have invented an advanced brain-computer interface with a flexible and moldable backing and penetrating microneedles. Adding a flexible backing to this kind of brain-computer ...
