Brain-computer interface enables people with paralysis to control tablet devices

Tablets and other mobile computing devices are part of everyday life, but using them can be difficult for people with paralysis. New research from the BrainGate consortium shows that a brain-computer interface  can enable people with paralysis to directly operate an off-the-shelf tablet device just by thinking about making cursor movements and clicks.
