The first wireless implantable computer-brain interface

Scientists from Brown University have created the world's first wireless implantable computer-brain interface (KMI). After 13 months of testing on monkeys and pigs, it is ready to be tested on humans.

The device has great advantages over existing analogues - it does not require connection to a computer, has a small size and relatively low power consumption (about 100 mW). Also, it is equipped with a wireless charger. A full battery lasts about 6 hours of continuous use. All this untie the potential user from the computer.

KMI is often used to help paralyzed people. Thanks to KMI, they can control a manipulator (such as a woman in a video at the end of a post) or a computer. The new invention will open up new opportunities for such patients and help them become more mobile.
