Woman's Brain Implant Turns Her Thoughts Into Speech in Real Time
Nearly two decades after suffering a brainstem stroke at the age of 30 that left her unable to speak, a woman in the US regained the ability to turn her thoughts into words in real time thanks to a new brain-computer interface (BCI) process.
Nearly two decades after suffering a brainstem stroke at the age of 30 that left her unable to speak, a woman in the US regained the ability to turn her thoughts into words in real time thanks to a new brain-computer interface (BCI) process. "Improving speech synthesis latency and decoding speed is essential for dynamic conversation and fluent communication," the researchers from the University of California in Berkeley and San Francisco write in their published report. This is "compounded by the fact that speech synthesis requires additional time to play and for the user and listener to comprehend the synthesized audio," explains the team, led by University of California, Berkeley computing engineer Kaylo Littlejohn.
