Description

Back in 2017, Facebook announced that they are starting BCI program. Since then, Emily Mugler and Mark Chevillet working on a potential non-invasive wearable BCI. Before it can be constructed, they first have to figure out the “neural signals” necessary to make it work which is where a study published from their lab in 2019 comes in. In the paper, it was found that their neural network model for decoding “brain-to-text [had] error rates as low as 3%” (2020). They hope to get to the point of creating AR Glasses with inclusivity in mind
