How we focus our attention before we even see an object matters. For example, when we look for something moving in the sky, our expectation would be very different if the object is a bird flying past ...

Innovative brain-controlled robotic hand developed in Bangladesh offers affordable, real-time interaction using EEG ...

A new study shows that our brain’s attention system first prepares broadly, then zooms in on specific details within ...

UC Davis researchers show that when preparing to focus, the brain first tunes in to a broad category like color or movement, ...

The word “bionic” conjures sci-fi visions of humans enhanced to superhuman levels. It’s true that engineering advances such as better motors and batteries, together with modern computing, mean that ...

In a recent study published in PNAS Nexus, researchers provide new insights into human cognition by prioritizing interpretability in predictive modeling of intelligence from brain connectivity, rather ...

Bioelectrical signals (including EEG, EMG, and ECG signals) have been widely applied in health monitoring, disease treatment, wearable devices, myoelectric exoskeletons, brain-machine interfaces, and ...

These pioneers are aiming to do challenging and important medical work. One has already implanted 54 patients.

Engineers at the University of Texas at Austin have devised a brain-computer interface (BCI) to help improve the lives of people with motor disabilities. The new study differs from Musk-backed ...

“Our project has shown that we can interpret signals from neurons with a simple computer algorithm to generate sophisticated, fluid movements that allow the user to interact with the environment,” ...

The human brain is the most complex and powerful computer in the world - and, as far as we know, the universe. Today’s most sophisticated artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms are only just ...
