Reading the Surface of the Brain From: Technology Review By: Emily Singer A startup aims to develop a minimally invasive neural prosthesis for disabled patients. A technology currently used to monitor epilepsy is being adapted into a neural interface for people who are paralyzed or have motor impairments from neurodegenerative disease. Neurolutions, a startup based in St. Louis, is developing a small, implanted device that translates signals recorded from the surface of the brain into computer commands.
