Abstract / Description

*To receive email announcements and live stream information for upcoming seminars, please subscribe to the SystemX Seminar/EE310 Mailing list here.

Our brain uses electrical signals for communication, and by sensing and modulating these electrical activities, we can create direct connections between the human brain and the external world. We will discuss components of a fully implanted, scalable brain-computer interface (BCI) at Neuralink, its initial application in restoring autonomy to individuals with paralysis, and what's next.
