Technology Roadmap

Two Technology Routes

From fully invasive dynamic brain-computer interfaces to non-invasive body-surface dynamic human-machine synergy.

Fully Invasive Dynamic Brain-Computer Interface System

Our long-term goal is to explore intelligence augmentation, extending human-machine collaboration beyond external assistance to enhancing intelligence itself. In the near term, we aim to develop minimally invasive neurosurgical instrument systems and bring related technologies into medical devices.

Non-Invasive Body-Surface Dynamic Human-Machine Synergy System

Including intelligent EEG caps with dynamic, multimodal closed-loop monitoring and intervention, and human-machine collaboration systems based on multimodal body-surface physiological signal monitoring and feedback.
