Electrodes in a paralyzed man’s brain turned his imagined handwriting into words typed on a screen. The translation from brain to text may ultimately point to ways to help people with disabilities ...

As part of the BrainGate clinical trial, researchers are using tiny electrode arrays to record signals from the motor cortex of the brain. Those signals can then be used to control robotic prostheses, ...

When someone is paralyzed from the neck down, it goes without saying that they can no longer write words out by hand. They can still think about doing so, though, and those thoughts could allow them ...

Typing may be faster than writing by hand, but it’s less stimulating for the brain, according to research published Friday in the journal Frontiers in Psychology. After recording the brain activity of ...

Explore the transformative power of handwriting in today’s digital age as we uncover its impact on memory, creativity and ...

Two microelectrode arrays in the “hand area” of the brain measure neural activity. A recurrent neural network (RNN) then converts the signals into probabilities for each character. These probabilities ...

If you're like many digitally savvy Americans, it has likely been a while since you've spent much time writing by hand. The laborious process of tracing out our thoughts, letter by letter, on the page ...

Time to practice your handwriting again. Want to remember something? Don't type it out—write it down. At least that's what a paper published in Frontiers in Psychology suggests, concluding that ...

Why writing by hand makes kids smarter Writing by hand creates much more activity in the sensorimotor parts of the brain, researchers found Date: October 5, 2020 Source: Norwegian University of ...
