Stunning Announcement: Ultra-Miniature Brain-Machine Interface, Achieving a 91% Accuracy in Thought-to-Text Translation
Release time:
2024-10-12
In the burgeoning field of brain-machine interfaces (BMI), Elon Musk and his Neuralink are undoubtedly the stars. However, today we unveil a rising star from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland—the Micro Brain-Machine Interface (MiBMI), which embodies the essence of "small size, big power"!
Revolutionary Breakthrough, Ultra-Compact Size
Imagine a BMI chip so small that it is only the size of two 8-square millimeter thin sheets combined, practically negligible in dimension, yet containing unprecedented technological power. Compared to Neuralink's slightly larger 23x8 millimeter form, MiBMI seems like a miniature robot from a sci-fi movie, seamlessly navigating the neural networks of the brain and performing miraculous tasks quietly.
Low Power, High Efficiency, Minimally Invasive
Even more astonishing is that the MiBMI, while compact, boasts ultra-low power consumption and minimal invasiveness. It features a complete real-time data processing system built-in, capable of independently transforming brain signals into text without the need for bulky external devices. In contrast, Neuralink's 64 electrodes penetrate the brain and require auxiliary external equipment, making it appear somewhat cumbersome and complex.
Accurate Decoding, Seamless Thought-to-Text Interface
Through relentless effort, EPFL scientists have uncovered the "neural code" (DNC) hidden deep within the brain. These unique neural markers act as the brain's secret language, subtly activating whenever people imagine writing letters. MiBMI captures these subtle signals and translates them accurately into text on the screen, achieving an impressive 91% accuracy!
The Future is Here, Boundless Communication
The potential of this technology stretches far beyond its current capabilities. Presently, MiBMI can decode 31 characters, but the research team asserts this is just the tip of the iceberg. They are confident that soon this system will unlock up to 100 characters, opening a new door of communication for patients with severe motor impairments. Imagine those who have lost their voices due to illness being able to communicate directly with the world through their thoughts—how exhilarating!
In this rapidly advancing technological era, the emergence of MiBMI undoubtedly paints a grand blueprint for future medicine. It symbolizes not only technological progress but also the crystallization of human wisdom and courage. Let us collectively look forward to the day when this technology moves out of the laboratory to truly benefit everyone in need!
Latest developments
In January 2025, members of the Yinfeng cryomedicine team actively participated in the "Sino-French Aerial Emergency Medical Rescue Training" and obtained certification. This signifies a further enhancement of the team's professional capabilities in the field of international emergency medical rescue.
Brands are an important symbol of high-quality development. Under the drive of strategies such as Brand Strong Province and Good Products Shandong, Shandong brands have risen to prominence. Particularly in recent years, Shandong brands have focused on new quality productivity, using "new" to enhance quality, achieving remarkable results in high-quality development.
With infinite hope for future medical technology, I applied to become a member of the Yinfeng Life Extension Program and volunteered to contribute to cryobiology in a hundred years by becoming a cryonics volunteer. I also believe that preservation in China is safer.
As a distinguished emblem of technological innovation in Shandong, Yinfeng's Life Continuation Project will continue to build a bridge for domestic and international government research and academic exchange, continually strengthen scientific collaborations and result transformations with global research institutions, consistently contribute to the development of cryobiomedicine, and inject continuous hope into the shared ideal of extending human life.
