Mind-reading’ device can analyse the brainwaves of non-verbal, paralysed patients – Daily Mail

Experts say their neuroprosthesis speech device has the potential to restore communication to people who cannot speak or type due to paralysis.

Previous research had shown that a similar system was able to decode up to 50 words.

However, this was limited to a specific vocabulary and the participant had to attempt to speak the words out loud, which required significant effort, given their paralysis.
