Exploring cortical connectivity of visual prosthesis users: resting-state study mdpi.com/2673-4591/81/1/20 "This study reveals significant changes in cortical connectivity before UEA [Utah Electrode Array] implantation and after its explantation."

Experimental setup. (a) Approximate region where UEA was implanted in both subjects. (b) Location of EEG recording electrodes. Notably, Fp1 position was omitted from analyses due to high levels of noise and artifacts found in signal during recordings. (c) Pipeline used for removing blink artifacts.

To reiterate: it's not that The vOICe vision BCI is so good, it's that invasive BCIs for (restoring) vision are often far worse than claimed (by Elon Musk and the likes) #BCI

Prediction: #BCI companies currently focusing on developing an implantable visual prosthesis will soon shift their focus toward more general #neuromodulation use cases to reach economy of scale and recoup investments. #NeuroTech

BCI companies currently focusing on developing an implantable visual prosthesis will soon shift their focus toward more general neuromodulation use cases to reach economy of scale and recoup investments.
The claim that BCI (brain-computer interface) companies specializing in implantable visual prostheses are poised to pivot toward broader neuromodulation applications—for conditions like depression, chronic pain, Parkinson's, or cognitive enhancement—aligns with emerging industry trends. This shift would indeed help achieve economies of scale by targeting larger patient populations and accelerating investment recovery, as visual restoration remains a niche market (affecting an estimated 2.2 …

Revolutionizing brain‒computer interfaces: overcoming biocompatibility challenges in implantable neural interfaces jnanobiotechnology.biomedcentr

Foreign body response to neural interfaces: Electrode implantation induces a local proinflammatory environment and biochemical responses. Following implantation, activated microglia rapidly adhere to the electrode surface and secrete proinflammatory mediators. This initial microglial adhesion is succeeded by astrocytic encapsulation along the entire electrode shaft, resulting in the formation of a glial scar. These processes, along with localized haemorrhaging, are associated with neurodegenera…
