Thought-To-Text Typing Hits 90 Characters/Minute With 94% Accuracy
New brain-computer interface technology is giving quadriplegic and tetraplegic patients the ability to control computers, thought type at 90 characters a minute, and move robotic arms to feed themselves, or high-five family members. Built by Blackrock Neurotech and including technology licensed from Stanford University, the technology is scheduled to come to market this year, and will enable up to ten times faster communication than existing products.
