Brain–computer interface
A brain–computer interface links neural activity directly to machines, reading signals from the brain — invasively via implants or non-invasively via EEG — and sometimes writing information back, with decoders translating neural patterns into commands or text.
BCIs can restore movement, speech, and sensation to people with paralysis or injury, and in the long run could extend human memory, control, and communication.
Implanted interfaces have let people type and control devices by thought in trials; bandwidth, longevity, surgical risk, and non-invasive resolution are the hurdles.
The discovery loop, applied.
Through the Mind & Neurotechnology center, ASIZ aims the discovery loop at brain–computer interface: frontier models survey the literature and simulate the possibilities, rank the experiments most likely to resolve the open questions, and partner labs run the decisive ones — with results shared openly.
