Advances in Brain Wave Exoskeleton Control

With the help of brain implants and exoskeletons, French scientists have made it possible to move tetraplegics. This is the first time that all four limbs have been pointed in this way.

Exoskeletons have been used for some time to assist in the rehabilitation of people with disabilities and to relieve the hardship of the hard-hit elderly. Existing devices are either about detecting and amplifying other movements or reading nerve signals in the limbs.

Capturing movement data directly in the brain is still in its infancy, as it is much more challenging. Non-invasive electrode caps will still need to be developed to achieve the desired resolution, while implants always run the risk of complications ranging from infection to injury.
