Neurochips and brain-computer interfaces: current state and opportunities

Abstract

This paper examines current status and future prospects of neurochips and brain computer interfaces, designed to create direct communication channels between the human nervous system and external computing devices. These technologies are increasingly moving from the research arena into the clinical arena, greatly impacting the treatment of neurological conditions and the possibility of cognitive enhancement. The research is also aimed at providing valuable information for clinicians, engineers, and policymakers on the future prospects of neurochips and brain-computer interfaces.
