China builds the computer interface industry in the brain

Looking at these monuments and other modern monuments, Beng says it is realistic that at least one BCI system can obtain approval in China by 2027.

Menmin Lau, director of the Chinese Institute of Brain Research (CIBR) in Beijing, agrees that the country is on its way to achieve the goals set by the new policy document. “It is basically an engineering project, it has no ambitious goals. Indeed, there are many people who are working on it,” he says.

LUO is the chief scientist in Neucyber Neurotech, a compound of CBIR, which has developed a stroke the size of the coin called Beinao-1 and its blue so far in five people. “We have noticed excellent safety and stability in our clinical assessments,” he says.

Luo says that the beneficiaries, who are paralyzed, are now able to transfer the computer index and move to smart phone applications. The team plans to implant a sixth patient by the end of August.

“We think there is a great need that is not necessary for BCI auxiliary technology in China,” he says. It is estimated that at least 1 to 2 million patients in the country can benefit from BCIS for assistance and rehabilitation purposes.

Besides these uses, the policy document sets other medical applications. She says BCIS can be used to monitor and analyze brain activity and analyze it to prevent or reduce the risk of some brain diseases. It also supports consumer applications, such as vigilance monitoring. The document says that BCI can be worn can provide timely alerts for drowsiness, lack of attention, and slow reaction times, which helps reduce the possibility of traffic accidents.

“I think unintended BCI products will get a big boost in the market in China, because China is the largest country of consumer electronics manufacturing,” says Beng.

A few American companies, including emotion and neurological, have started selling wearable devices to consumers that use electrocardiograms, or EEG, to capture brain waves across the scalp. But the devices are still expensive and have not yet taken off on a larger scale.

Meanwhile, the Chinese Policy Document promotes the mass production of non-cultivated devices in various forms-with ear buds, installed on the head, installed on the ear, helmets, glasses, and headphones. The BCIS experience in some industries is also suggested to safety management, such as processing dangerous materials, nuclear energy, mining and electricity. The document indicates that BCIS can provide early warnings of events in the workplace such as low oxygen levels, poisoning and fainting.

While the new policy guidelines put competition in China and the United States in the BCI area, Peng sees a space for cooperation across the country among entrepreneurs. “We can cooperate as a society to build something for patients, because they are desperate to this technology with a better life,” he says. “We don’t want to participate in any geopolitical issues. We just want to build something useful for patients.”
