Brain-computer interface trials are taking off
Brain-computer interface (BCI) trials are experiencing significant growth, with the number of individuals implanted with electrodes in their brains more than doubling recently. Casey Harrell, a patient with ALS, is highlighted as an early adopter, using a BCI to communicate, work, and interact with his family. This technology is advancing rapidly, with various approaches ranging from invasive implants to less invasive external devices, aiming to restore communication and independence for individuals with paralysis.
