BCIs create direct communication between the brain and external devices, enabling applications like motor function restoration for individuals with paralysis, speech enhancement for those with communication impairments, and even cognitive augmentation. These systems rely on electrode-based neural signal acquisition and advanced signal processing algorithms to translate brain activity into actionable commands.
In the Tech Between Us podcast, host Raymond Yin, Mouser Director of Technical Content, and Dr. Dan Rubin, Critical Care Neurologist at Massachusetts General Hospital and Instructor at Harvard Medical School, explore the complexities of BCI implementation. Their conversation includes latency challenges, signal fidelity and the ethical considerations of neurotechnology. Mouser's In Between The Tech podcast features Dr. Christoph Guger, Founder & CEO of g.tec Medical Engineering, who discusses the evolution of BCIs, their role in neuro-rehabilitation, and the next phase of innovation in the field.
"Mind-controlled machines are no longer theoretical, they are already improving lives," said Yin. "Progress in neural signal processing, non-invasive electrode technology, and AI-driven analytics is accelerating the viability of BCIs. This new series highlights the engineering advancements that are making these systems more accessible and effective."
In addition to podcasts, Mouser's EIT series includes video, technical articles, and topic-related infographics, as well as subscriber-exclusive content providing key insights into cutting-edge developments such as brain-activated therapeutic devices for stroke rehabilitation. By focusing on real-world applications and emerging challenges, the series equips engineers with the knowledge needed to contribute to the future of neurotechnology.
Established in 2015, Mouser's Empowering Innovation Together program is one of the electronic component industry's most recognised educational programs. To learn more, visit.
