The combination of artificial intelligence and neuroscience allows a paralyzed man to manipulate a robotic arm by using his brain to imagine movements.

The team implanted tiny sensors in his brain—in the motor cortex, which controls voluntary movement, and in the part of the sensory cortex that processes feeling in the hand. The robotic arm is ...

Since the bionic arm has sensors on it, when an object comes into contact with these sensors, the stimulation is sent to the brain and the ... more complex sensors and robotic technology is ...

A rice-sized microrobot offers precision in brain surgery, starting with tumor biopsies in a first clinical trial set for ...

Brain computer interface (BCI) company Neuralink has been given regulatory approval to start a new trial of its implant to see if it can be used to control a robotic arm. If it proves to be ...

A novel study has unveiled a technique that enhances stem cell therapy for neurodegenerative diseases by combining magnetic ...

"To move something, you have to get a command signal from the brain to [an object,] whether it's a wheelchair, robot or your own arm," explains Dr. Brian Schmit, an assistant professor of ...

This left him initially at the age of 18 years old to consider a life without the use of his arms or legs ... electrical activity in the brain, or allows for the stimulation of neurons near ...

Over two weeks, these signals were used to train the AI model to account for daily shifts in brain activity patterns. Initially, the participant practiced controlling a virtual robotic arm that ...
