BCIs mark a paradigm shift in neurotherapeutics, where cognition and intent can directly influence external digital and mechanical systems. As the technology matures, BCIs are becoming central to ...

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 ...

Casey Harrell, a man with the progressive muscle disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), reacts to using a brain-computer interface to 'speak' for the first time. The device interprets brain ...

What the world’s fastest brain-typist is telling us about the future of computer interfaces. In a 12-by-20-foot room at a skilled-nursing facility in Menlo Park, California, researchers are testing ...

It's been over two decades since researchers first demonstrated that a person could move a computer cursor with their thoughts. That's thanks to brain-computer interfaces (BCIs): surgically implanted ...

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 ...

There’s currently no cure for paralysis. But recent scientific endeavors show that we’re on the brink of revolutionizing treatment for people with severe spinal cord injuries. When patients become ...

A new brain-computer-interface device doesn't require open-brain surgery to implant. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. After being ...
