Apple is in the early stages of developing brain-computer interfaces that would allow people, especially those with mobility issues, to control their iPhones, iPads, and Vision Pro headsets with neural signals captured by a new kind of brain implant. According to the Wall Street Journal, Apple is partnering with Synchron—a privately held, New York City-based company backed by Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates—on the in project. The brain-computer interface, or BCI, industry is projected to grow signifi

Apple has partnered with brain-computer interface maker Synchron to develop tech that lets consumers control devices like iPhones with their thoughts, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal . This is primarily intended to help people with medical conditions that limit hand use, such as spinal cord injuries or diseases like ALS. Here's the gist. Synchron has been developing a stent-like implant that's placed in a vein on top of the brain's motor cortex. It's called the Stentrode and it

With the Postgres 18 Beta 1 release this week a multi-year effort, and significant architectural shift in Postgres is taking shape: Asynchronous I/O (AIO). These capabilities are still under active development, but they represent a fundamental change in how Postgres handles I/O, offering the potential for significant performance gains, particularly in cloud environments where latency is often the bottleneck. While some features may still be adjusted or dropped during the beta period before the

March 27, 2012 Volume 10, issue 3 PDF Your Mouse is a Database Web and mobile applications are increasingly composed of asynchronous and realtime streaming services and push notifications. Erik Meijer Among the hottest buzzwords in the IT industry these days is "big data," but the "big" is something of a misnomer: big data is not just about volume, but also about velocity and variety:4 • The volume of data ranges from a small number of items stored in the closed world of a conventional RD

Microsoft announced today that, based on customer feedback, it will indefinitely delay removing driver synchronization in Windows Server Update Services (WSUS). "Seeing how many of you are already moving to the available cloud-based driver services, we initially proposed the removal of WSUS driver synchronization. Thanks to your feedback, especially on disconnected device scenarios, we've now revised this plan," said Senior Program Manager Paul Reed. "Based on your valuable feedback, we are po

The Synchrony Budget For building a system of distributed services, one concept I think is very valuable to keep in mind is what I call the synchrony budget: as much as possible, a service should minimize the number of synchronous requests which it makes to other services. The reasoning behind this is two-fold: synchronous calls are costly. The more synchronous requests you are doing, the longer it will take to process inbound requests to your own service; users don’t like to wait and might de

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
