    A computer brain interface that does not require surgery to fit is set to help severely disabled people connect with the world — using an Apple augmented reality headset.
    It will enable people to use iPhones, iPads, and the company’s Vision Pro headset by transmitting commands through their minds.
    The interface, known as a BCI, was developed by New York based Synchron and is backed by Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Amazon chief Jeff Bezos.
    It uses a proprietary piece of hardware to detect brain signals without requiring open brain surgery like Tesla billionaire Elon Musk’s version called Neuralink.
    Instead a tubular metal mesh with electrode sensors called Stentrode is threaded through a blood vessel that reaches the brain.
    When it detects motor signals there, it sends those to a small transmitter at the other end of its wiring worn by the user.
    The transmitter beams the signals to a wireless processor about the size of a smartphone, to interpret and deliver them as commands in real time to a personal device like an iPhone.
    It has been successfully trialled by a patient in the US suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord
    The patient, identified only as “Rodney” cannot talk or move his hands.

    OPS: A patient identified only as Rodney uses the Synchron BCI to operate a pet feeder, reply to a text message from his wife and turn on a streaming music play list plus operate a robot vacuum cleaner.

    A computer brain interface that does not require surgery to fit is set to help severely disabled people connect with the world — using an Apple augmented reality headset.
    It will enable people to use iPhones, iPads, and the company’s Vision Pro headset by transmitting commands through their minds.
    The interface, known as a BCI, was developed by New York based Synchron and is backed by Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Amazon chief Jeff Bezos.
    It uses a proprietary piece of hardware to detect brain signals without requiring open brain surgery like Tesla billionaire Elon Musk’s version called Neuralink.
    Instead a tubular metal mesh with electrode sensors called Stentrode is threaded through a blood vessel that reaches the brain.
    When it detects motor signals there, it sends those to a small transmitter at the other end of its wiring worn by the user.
    The transmitter beams the signals to a wireless processor about the size of a smartphone, to interpret and deliver them as commands in real time to a personal device like an iPhone.
    It has been successfully trialled by a patient in the US suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord
    The patient, identified only as “Rodney” cannot talk or move his hands.

    OPS: A patient identified only as Rodney uses the Synchron BCI to operate a pet feeder, reply to a text message from his wife and turn on a streaming music play list plus operate a robot vacuum cleaner.

    Une interface cerveau-ordinateur a permis à un homme paralysé de piloter un drone virtuel en utilisant uniquement ses pensées
    Pictures must credit: Willsey et al / Stanford University A computer brain interface has allowed a man with paralysis to fly a virtual drone using only his thoughts. Researchers said the implant gave the 69-year-old patient an unprecedented level of control over a virtual quadcopter—just by thinking about moving his unresponsive fingers. The study by a team at the USA’s Stanford University was inspired by the participant’s own request after he said controlling the virtual object was like playing a musical instrument. The technology divided the man’s hand into three parts: the thumb and two pairs of fingers — index and middle, ring and small. Each could move both vertically and horizontally. As the patient thought about moving the three groups, at times simultaneously, the virtual quadcopter drone responded, manoeuvring through a virtual obstacle course. A spokesperson said: “It’s an exciting next step in providing those with paralysis the chance to enjoy games with friends while also demonstrating the potential for performing remote work.”

    What's paralysing thousands of rainbow lorikeets? Scientists search for the cause as volunteer carers are overwhelmed
    A mystery paralysis syndrome is afflicting lorikeet populations in south-east Queensland and northern NSW at a rate scientists say they have never seen.

    Another delivery of an assortment of boxes containing lorikeets. Scores of lorikeets arriving everyday at the RSPCA Wildlife hospital at Wacol with a mystery paralysis syndrome. They've had more than 3500 come in to the Wacol and Eumundi hospitals since 1 Jan but about half have to be euthanised, with the rest eventually being moved on to volunteer carers. Brisbane.

    A brain implant for paralysis victims enabling them to operate computers and electronic gadgets has been successfully tested on ten people.

    The implant, called Stentrode, lets users manipulate the devices simply by thought.

    It is able to safely pass through curving blood vessels in the brain using a procedure called cerebral angiography, eliminating the need for open brain surgery.

    By using blood vessels to deliver the technology, the technique may reduce risk of brain tissue rejection of the device, which has been a significant problem for other techniques.

    It places 16 electrodes right next to specific areas.

    Once in the brain, the Stentrode introduces a wire-like mesh inside the blood vessel which is covered with new cell growth within days.

    It is then connected to modular training software implant called BrainOS which is attached to the patients chest.

    It powered by artificial intelligence that helps patients to control technology directly through thought.
    OPS:Once hooked up to a computer, the aidlets the patient control it using just their thoughts, such as typing out messages using the keyboard.

    OPS:The Stentrode mesh is fed into the brain via a tube inserted into a blood vessel. Within two days it will be covered in cell growth

    OPS:The first human to get the Stentrode implant was Australian Graham Felstead who suffers from a debilitating illness called Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS. He has lost the use of both arms and hands but is able to control his PC using the Stentrode implant and BrainOS software
