Paralysed patients use mind-controlled robotic arm to reach and grasp
For the first time in 15 years, a paralysed woman was reportedly able to reach for and sip from a drink without help from a carer - thanks to a robotic arm that she controls with her own thoughts. The ongoing clinical trial, is evaluating the safety and feasibility of an investigational device called the BrainGate neural interface system. This is a type of brain-computer interface (BCI) intended
