A leap forward for prosthetic systems | Stanford School of Engineering

A leap forward for prosthetic systems | Stanford School of Engineering | Complex Insight  - Understanding our world | Scoop.it

Stanford researchers have designed the fastest, most accurate algorithm yet for brain-implantable prosthetic systems that can help disabled people maneuver computer cursors with their thoughts. The algorithm’s speed, accuracy and natural movement approach those of a real arm, doubling performance of existing algorithms. click image or title for more info.
