Brain-computer interfaces could enable people with locked-in syndrome and other conditions to “speak.”
In the international competition, people with physical disabilities put state-of-the-art devices to the test as they race to complete the tasks of everyday life.
The ability to decode acoustic information from brain activity aids the development of brain-computer interfaces that restore communication in patients who suffer paralysis.
They could also “turn off” their fear.
If you guessed “staying up all night to play video games,” you’d be right.
It has already been trialed in people and could give us a better way to analyze and stimulate the brain.
Giving speech to the speechless.
“Neurotech is not just about the brain,” says Synchron CTO Riki Banerjee, explaining how their tech can help with paralysis, brain diseases, and beyond.
The brain implant lets her talk four times faster than the previous record.
Perrikaryal uses an EEG to translate her brain activity into beating bosses in “Elden Ring” and beyond.
Hang on to something — or ride the wave — because three big tech trends are about to converge.
Mike Bechtel, chief futurist with Deloitte Consulting LLP, joins Big Think for a wide-ranging look at what’s next — and why.
Can electrical stimulation meaningfully substitute for natural touch during a complex task in the real world? We think so.
Skepticism is appropriate when gazing into the futurist’s crystal ball.
Graphical user interfaces are how most of us interact with computers, from iPhones to laptops. But they were once condemned as making students lazy and destroying the art of writing.
“Could you create a god?” Nietzsche’s titular character asks in “Thus Spoke Zarathustra.”
It’s not a huge leap to imagine we could target the biological processes that mediate our behaviours.
Proponents of transhumanism make big promises, such as a future in which we upload our minds into a supercomputer. But there is a fatal flaw in this argument: reductionism.
A new framework describes how thought arises from the coordination of neural activity driven by oscillating electric fields — a.k.a. brain “waves” or “rhythms.”
The most mental game in existence no longer requires fingers.
Who — or what — really controls your mind?
As creatures and machines meld together in increasingly advanced forms, ethicists are starting to take note.
Bend it. Stretch it. Use it to conduct electricity.
Researchers have been developing a promising model that can more closely mimic the human body – organ-on-a-chip.
Uploading your mind is not a pathway to immortality. Instead, it will create a possibly hostile digital doppelgänger.
Virtual reality continues to blur the line between the physical and the digital, and it will change our lives forever.
Brain-computer interfaces give scientists their closest look so far at what the human brain does while we’re asleep.
A recently identified stage of sleep common to narcoleptics is a fertile source of creativity.
