Scott Imbrie vividly remembers the first time he used a robotic arm to shake someone’s hand and felt the robotic limb as if it were his own. “I still get goosebumps when I think about that initial ...

He was able to grasp, move, and release objects simply by imagining himself performing the actions. The device, known as a brain-computer interface (BCI), functioned successfully for a record seven ...

Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, have enabled a paralysed man to regularly control a robotic arm using signals from his brain, transmitted via a computer. He was able to ...

From left to right: Former students Satyam Kumar and Hussein Alawieh and professor José del R. Millán operate a robotic arm using a brain-computer interface. Did you know it’s possible to control a ...

Elizabeth Blackert is a Rice University doctoral alumna who is the first author on a study published in Advanced Intelligent Systems. HOUSTON – (June 9, 2025) – Researchers at Rice University have ...

Researchers researchers bring noninvasive EEG-based BCI one step closer to everyday use by demonstrating real-time brain decoding of individual finger movement intentions and control of a dexterous ...

A host of tech startups are racing to build brain implants, but there may be limits to how widely such invasive technology can be adopted. New research shows that pairing AI with less invasive ...

The company’s founder, Elon Musk, has also long talked about using the implant to help paraplegics regain limb control through robotic arms or even an entire Optimus robot from Tesla. Wray's video ...

Steve & Stanley spent two years creating a six degrees of freedom (6-DOF) robotic arm from scratch, combining mechanical engineering, electronics and software into a unified system. Their process ...
