DIGITIMES Insight: BCI grasping reaches market; implant stability and chip heat keep advanced uses beyond 2030

Invasive brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are demonstrating long-term commercial potential. Neuralink has enabled paralysed patients to control computers and robotic arms through thought; Synchron's iOS integration lets patients operate iPads; and Science combines implanted chips with smart glasses to help visually impaired patients recognise text again. Potential applications extend to unmanned vehicles and defence.
