Highly anticipated: As the brain-computer interface technology field transitions from experimental demonstrations to practical clinical applications, the University of Michigan has just achieved a milestone that could make high-performance, wireless BCIs a reality for people living with paralysis, speech loss, and other challenging conditions. The successful test of a fully implantable device in a human patient signals a new era in neurotechnology, where restoring lost functions through brain-to

The future of brain-computer interface (BCI) technology is looking bright. Scientists have just reported the first in-human recording from a novel wireless BCI device that could possibly help people with stroke communicate independently again. Researchers at the University of Michigan performed the feat on May 14, using the Connexus BCI device developed by the company Paradromics. The device was temporarily implanted into the brain of a person living with epilepsy. Paradromics is now planning t

The big picture: A new frontier in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology is emerging from an unexpected source: Gabe Newell, co-founder and CEO of Valve, the company behind Half-Life, Counter-Strike, and Steam. His latest venture, Starfish Technologies, isn't focused on gaming – at least not yet. Instead, the startup is developing medical applications, with plans to debut its first BCI chips later this year. As Starfish Technologies approaches the launch of its first chips, the intersection

"This is a foundational moment for Precision," Dr. Benjamin Rapoport, Precision's co-founder and chief science officer, said in a statement. Rapoport also helped co-found Musk's Neuralink in 2017 before departing the following year. Only part of Precision's system was approved by the FDA on Thursday, but it marks the first full regulatory clearance granted to a company developing a wireless BCI, Precision said in a release . Other prominent startups in the space include Elon Musk's Neuralink, a

Implanted BCIs are electrodes put in paralyzed people’s brains so they can use imagined movements to send commands from their neurons through a wire, or via radio, to a computer. In this way, they can control a computer cursor or, in few cases, produce speech. Recently, this field has taken some strides toward real practical applications. About 25 clinical trials of BCI implants are currently underway. And this year MIT Technology Review readers have selected these brain-computer interfaces as

But most demonstrations of BCIs have been of one-off capabilities—playing a video game, moving a robotic arm, or piloting a drone, for instance. Synchron is aiming to build a BCI system able to seamlessly perform a wide range of tasks in the home environment. “It’s running in real time, in a real environment 24/7, making predictions where context really matters,” Tom Oxley, Synchron’s CEO, told WIRED in an exclusive interview. To do that, Synchron’s BCI will need to be trained on a lot of brain
