Artificial sense of touch, improved
Briefly

Scientists at the University of Pittsburgh, in collaboration with the University of Chicago, are making crucial strides in brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) that can restore the sense of touch to individuals with tetraplegia. This innovative research focuses on allowing BCI users to control the specifics of electrical stimulation, leading to a more intuitive and meaningful tactile experience. Unlike past methods that produced vague sensations, this research provides a realistic and personal interaction with objects, thus moving closer to a neuroprosthetic that is both enjoyable and functional for users.
