New breakthrough in brain-computer interfaces: paralyzed patients use their minds to control a robotic arm to write.

24 Feb,2018

Recently, a groundbreaking research result on brain-computer interface technology was published in Nature, a prestigious international journal. An American research team successfully developed a new brain-computer interface system that allows paralyzed patients to write with a robotic arm using their thoughts, with an accuracy rate close to 100%.

According to the introduction, the system captures neural signals generated when patients imagine writing through a microelectrode array implanted in the brain, and converts them into control commands to drive the robotic arm to complete the writing action. Researchers said that this technology brings new hope for paralyzed patients to restore their communication abilities, and is expected to be applied to a wider range of fields in the future, such as helping disabled people control prosthetics, operate computers, etc.

Experts point out that brain-computer interface technology is still in its development stage and faces challenges in terms of ethics and safety. However, with continuous technological advancements and regulations, brain-computer interfaces are expected to bring more benefits to humanity and usher in a new era of human-computer interaction.
