A neurotechnology company has announced it achieved real-time speech and text communication with its Connexus brain-computer interface (BCI) implanted device. In a Sept. 14 announcement, Paradromics, based in Austin, Texas, said the successful communication “was achieved as part of the Connect-One Early Feasibility Study, conducted under an FDA-approved Investigational Device Exemption. Moving beyond researcher-selected copy…
Neurotechnology Company Announces Real-Time Speech Achieved with Brain-Computer Interface
Study Challenges Belief that the Brain Rewires Itself After Limb Loss
New research could help support clients living with limb loss or using prosthetics with brain-computer interfaces.
Results of a new study are challenging the long-held belief that the human brain significantly changes itself following the loss of a limb — and this new information could help clinicians to better support patients before and after amputation. The study — Stable cortical body maps before and after arm amputation — was published Aug.…
Review: Webinar Compares Brain-Computer Interface Technologies, Predicts Timelines for Success
BCI technology could be used to control wheelchairs, exoskeletons and prosthetics.
Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology is already turning science-fiction concepts into everyday realities. But there are many different “mind control” approaches, with different goals and applications, and differing levels of invasiveness for the components that interact with the user’s brain. IDTechEx, an independent research firm focusing on emerging tech and related markets, took a deeper dive…
