Nature reports that the device reads brain activity to translate speech and gestures in real time.
TLDR
Nature reports on a brain implant that uses AI to interpret intended words and gestures simultaneously. A user's science-and-technology roundup describes tests in three people with severe paralysis. It says two participants controlled personalized full-body avatars in real time, with decoded speech displayed as text and gestures driving movement. The roundup describes an early proof of concept—not yet a general communication system—using a surgical implant and a limited set of communication tasks.
