No one has had a Synchron brain-computer interface longer than Rodney Gorham. He’s still finding new ways to use it.

Since then, scientists have designed and developed BCIs that have enabled people with quadriplegia to control a computer cursor, a robotic arm, and even move their own limb. Recently, a person with ...

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, ...

Brain-computer interfaces are a groundbreaking technology that can help paralyzed people regain functions they’ve lost, like moving a hand. These devices record signals from the brain and decipher the ...

Brain-computer interface technology has long belonged to the realm of science fiction, but it’s quickly emerging as a real-world innovation with the potential to transform how we live, work and ...

A man who hasn’t been able to move or speak for years imagines picking up a cup and filling it with water. In response to the man’s thoughts, a robotic arm mounted on his wheelchair glides forward, ...

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 ...

What are brain-computer interfaces? Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are devices that allow for the action or control of an external device from brain signals. These technologies have a broad range of ...

The durability of communication with the use of brain–computer interfaces in persons with progressive neurodegenerative disease has not been extensively examined. We report on 7 years of independent ...

An important milestone for brain-computer interfaces has been achieved. A new peer-reviewed neuroscience study led by researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) demonstrates a ...
