Scientists have developed advanced BCIs that translate paralyzed individuals’ brain signals into words.
About BCIs for Speech Restoration:
- Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) are cutting-edge devices that decode brain signals into speech, enhancing communication for people with severe paralysis.
- These BCIs outperform existing technologies in terms of speed, accuracy, and vocabulary coverage.
- People with neurological disorders, such as brainstem stroke or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, often experience speech loss due to muscle paralysis.
- Previous studies decoded speech from paralyzed individuals’ brain activities but only in text form, with limited speed, accuracy, and vocabulary.
- These advanced BCIs offer new possibilities for people with paralysis to communicate more naturally and expressively, significantly improving their quality of life.
