New research confirms that physical activity plays a critical role in protecting brain health, reducing the risk of dementia, stroke, anxiety, depression, and sleep disorders. In contrast, prolonged sitting is linked to a significantly higher risk of these conditions. This study, based on data from over 73,000 participants, highlights the importance of movement as a modifiable factor for brain health.

Apple recently filed a patent number US20230225659A1 The new earbuds described in the patent will allow Apple to read your brain waves “Earbuds that are designed and patented by Apple to literally read your brain waves, record your brain waves — You're not going to believe what these guys have the control to do with these. Check this out. The patent is for a bio signal sensing device using dynamic selection of electrodes. This is absolutely Apple, it is 2023 and it gets not good. Brain activity can be monitored using electrodes placed on the scalp of a user. The electrodes may in some case be placed inside or around the outer ear of the user. Measuring the brain activity using electrodes placed in and around the outer ear may be preferred due to benefits such as reduced device mobility and decreased visibility of the electrodes when compared to other devices. — And look, it says for accurate measurement, A brain activity using an ear electroencephalography, oh my God, ear electroencephalography, EEG device.“ It can measure biosignals, including electroencephalography (EEG), electrical brain activity, along with others like EMG (muscle), EOG (eye movement), heart rate and more

This perspective will be more intuitive. Fourier is building a data acquisition and training platform that integrates non-invasive brain-computer interfaces and humanoid robots. This wealth of data will enhance the intelligence level of GR-3. The goal is for GR-3 to accurately identify the brain intention signals of stroke patients during future rehabilitation training and respond in real time to guide patients in performing rehabilitation movements. For example, lifting the left hand, picking up a block from the table, etc. Of course, GR-3 can also become a life assistant controlled by a human BCI. Imagine that people with mobility impairments could also issue commands to GR-3 via BCI to open the refrigerator and get a drink.

ELON: WE WILL SEE MORE AND MORE CYBORG ACTIVITY "I think we'll probably start seeing more truly cyborg activity, like brain-computer interfaces. They've been able to figure out how to do an artificial hippocampus in rats and monkeys. And now, they're looking at doing that to solve severe epilepsy. About half of severe epilepsy cases originate in the hippocampus. By having an artificially augmented hippocampus, they can actually solve severe epilepsy cases. And you can read and write information back to the chip from your brain at the individual neuron level, today." Source: Stanford, October 2015

Peterson Academy’s newest course Brain Plasticity, by Dr. David Eagleman, a celebrated neuroscientist and New York Times bestselling author, known for his groundbreaking work on perception, brain plasticity, and the mysteries of consciousness. Available tonight at 8pm EST. Enroll now. In this course, Dr. David Eagleman explores the brain’s remarkable ability to adapt and reshape itself throughout life. The course covers how plasticity enables the brain to fine-tune its neural circuits, from constructing dynamic maps of the body and senses to learning movement control. It also investigates how the brain processes non-traditional sensory inputs, such as "seeing" through the skin or "hearing" vibrations. Dr. Eagleman discusses the role of relevance in developing expertise, the evolution of plasticity across the lifespan, and strategies for maintaining brain health. The course concludes with insights into learning, memory, and the brain’s ability to continually adapt to a changing world.

NEURALINK’S QUIET REVOLUTION: FROM THOUGHT TO TOTAL DEVICE DOMINION Elon detonated a new reality. “Any device that can be controlled via computer or phone can be controlled by a Neuralink implant.” That means everything... cars, drones, even your lights, could soon obey a thought. Neuralink confirmed it: current trial patients are already operating robotic arms using pure brain signals, and expansion to everyday devices is next. The secret lies in Neuralink’s 1,024 ultra-thin electrodes. Each thread is thinner than a hair yet capable of reading and writing neural activity with stunning precision. They don’t just record, they translate intention into action. Compared to Synchron’s vein-based stentrode, which passively listens from blood vessels, Neuralink sits directly on the motor cortex, capturing data with far greater fidelity and speed.

This is what our Osaka University team is developing in our Moonshot Internet of Brains Project. Unlike Synchron’s Stentrode, this technology can access thinner and more fragile cortical veins. By navigating into smaller vessels, it can record neural activity from a wider range of brain regions. So far, successful in pigs, and we aim to bring it to humans in the coming years.

Meta's new AI can predict your brain better than a brain scan. TRIBE v2 is a foundation model trained on 1,000+ hours of brain imaging data from 720 people. You feed it a video, sound clip, or text, and it predicts: > Which brain regions light up > How strongly > And in what order When tested on people it had never seen, the model's predictions were actually more accurate than most real brain scans (which get distorted by heartbeats, breathing, and movement). Researchers then replicated decades of classic neuroscience experiments entirely inside the software. No scanner, no human subjects. The model correctly identified the brain's face recognition center, language network, and emotional processing regions on its own. But look at what else Meta has been building: > Ray-Ban smart glasses that see and hear what you do > A wristband that reads nerve signals > And now a model that predicts how your brain responds to any piece of content There's no evidence these are all connected... but Meta now has a complete picture of attention, from the stimulus to the neural response.

For now, BCIs like mine are output-only. They don’t generate input in the brain. They simply read neural signals and turn them into actions — like controlling a computer with your mind. In the future, I do think BCIs will be able to generate input into the brain. We are very far from that today, and anyone saying otherwise is getting ahead of reality. But if we ever get there, the most important question won’t be technical. It’ll be: what will it mean to be human?

THIS IS FUCKING INSANE🤯😳 Israel is developing one of the most advanced brain-controlled exoskeletons in the world, allowing paralyzed people, including wounded soldiers, to walk again using only their thoughts. Israeli researchers at Tel Aviv University and neurotech teams have created a system combining a next-generation robotic exoskeleton with a non-invasive brain-computer interface (BCI). Some of the largest and most high profile robotics, technology, semiconductor and AI companies from Israel and the United States are involved in this research and project. The patient wears a lightweight EEG headset that reads brain signals in real time and translates them instantly into natural leg, arm and hand movements. No crutches, no buttons, just thought-controlled walking, standing, and stair climbing with AI adaptation. Early trials are showing patients regaining voluntary control and more natural gait. Human trials are advancing rapidly. This isn’t science fiction anymore. It’s Israeli innovation giving hope and independence back to those who sacrificed so much. Proud every single day. 🇮🇱 #BrainComputerInterface #ThoughtControlledExoskeleton #IsraelInnovation #IDF #StartupNation

Brain-controlled exoskeletons to train humanoid robots! 🧠 Fourier just presented human tele-operators using brain control interfaces and exoskeletal arms to train humanoid robots on home tasks. The brain control interface is the interesting part. Instead of using a controller or joystick to teleoperate, the operator's movements and intentions are captured more naturally through the exoskeleton and BCI. This means the demonstrations are more fluid, more human-like, and better suited for training robots to perform delicate home tasks. Multiple tele-operators are simultaneously generating training data across multiple robots. This is how you build the dataset needed for eventual full autonomy, without waiting years for it to arrive. This might be the bridge between "robots that work in controlled environments" and "robots that work in homes." Not full autonomy right away, but trusted human intelligence operating through a robot body, getting better with every task completed. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →
