Stentrode

The first human trial of a tiny device that reads brain signals is successfully allowing patients with paralysis to operate computers and phones with their minds

Researchers have demonstrated the feasibility of a tiny device that could one day offer an alternative to open brain surgery

Some of the technological innovations of 2017 sound more like sci-fi, but according to the brains behind a few of them, the future is still full of surprises

A device smaller than a paperclip could one day help paralysed people move their limbs

Dr Tom Oxley is leading the team behind the development of an implantable device which will allow paraplegics to operate an exoskeleton by thought alone

Hear from the developers of the stentrode, a tiny device implanted next to the brain to enable thought-controlled movement of an exoskeleton

From telepathy to hands-free fighter jets; we are on the precipice of a new generation of technologies, powered by thought-control

A device the size of a matchstick, implanted next to the brain’s motor cortex, could one day help paralysed people move their limbs
