A team of neuroscientists and engineers at Stanford University has developed a cutting-edge Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) that holds tremendous potential for individuals with paralysis. The technology, showcased in recent trials, allows paralyzed patients to regain control of robotic limbs and interact with the world around them using their thoughts.
The BCI works by implanting electrodes directly into the brain, enabling a direct link between the brain and external devices. During trials, participants were able to control the movement of robotic arms, type on a computer, and even walk in a virtual environment, all through the power of their thoughts.
