What if people with paralysis could communicate at the speed of their thoughts?
In this episode, I feature a paper by Willett and colleagues who developed a brain computer interface that allows people with paralysis to type at around 90 characters per minute - remember that normal typing speed is about 115 characters per minute. How? By creating an algorithm that deciphers patterns of brain activity.
