A new brain implant now lets people control Apple devices, such as iPads, iPhones and the Vision Pro, using only their thoughts. Synchron, an endovascular brain-computer interface (BCI) company based ...

Elon Musk's Neuralink suggests a human patient may have successfully used its brain chip to control a robotic arm. A video posted by the neurotechnology firm shows a robotic arm writing 'Convoy' on a ...

Apple is set to develop a brain implant chip (aka a 'category-defining brain-computer interface' in tech terms) that will allow users to control their iPhone, iPad and Apple Vision Pro with just their ...

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 ...

Apple is getting into the brain-computer interface (BCI) business, reveals a press release from New York-based startup Synchron. The idea is to enable people with limited mobility to use iPhones, ...

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 ...

California-based Cognixion is launching a clinical trial to allow paralyzed patients with speech disorders the ability to communicate without an invasive brain implant. Cognixion is one of several ...

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, ...

Brain-computer interfaces are typically unwieldy, which makes using them on the move a non-starter. A new neural interface small enough to be attached between the user’s hair follicles keeps working ...

In her lab at Oregon Health and Science University in Portland, Oregon, speech-language pathologist Melanie Fried-Oken has seen the development of assistive communication devices and brain-computer ...

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 ...
