Minimally Invasive Implantation
As fine as a human hair with electrode sites of only 5 μm, soft and stretchable — low implantation-related tissue trauma and low risk.

Technology Paradigm
Technology Name
NeuroWorm Bioinspired Worm-Like Dynamic Electrode
Core Innovation
This research is the first to propose the "dynamic electrode" paradigm for brain-computer interfaces, breaking the "static" tradition of implantable electrodes and opening a new direction for the research and application of brain-computer interface electrodes.
Publication
The research was published in Nature, 2025, under the title:
A movable long-term implantable soft microfibre for dynamic bioelectronics
Technical Advantages
Four Core Advantages
Systematic innovation from implantation to long-term stability.
Dynamically Adjustable
Freely drivable, solving the problems of electrode displacement and difficult repositioning in conventional electrodes.
Long-Term Stability
Theoretical lifespan of 10+ years with 1.5 years of verified long-term stability, addressing signal degradation in chronic implants.
Biocompatibility
Gold electrodes offer top biocompatibility, and SEBS insulation keeps tissue damage and immune-response risks low.
Technology Comparison
vs. Traditional Approaches
Differentiating advantages compared with conventional BCI electrode approaches.
Limitations of Traditional Approaches
Non-invasive
Signals attenuate through the skull, limiting resolution and localization
Flexible Electrodes
Fixed position, cannot be dynamically adjusted or optimized long-term
Silicon-based Electrodes
Rigid and unbendable, notable long-term immune response
Semi-invasive
Still requires craniotomy, higher trauma and risk than vascular access
Esonitro Core Advantages
Minimally invasive
Hair-thin implant via vascular access, no craniotomy
Stable signals
No signal decay over long-term implantation, 10+ year lifetime
Flexible
Freely steerable, position adjustable at any time
Multi-electrode collaboration
Electrode arrays covering multiple deep-brain targets
Whole-brain signal recording and writing
Both recording and neuromodulation across the whole brain
Derivative Technologies
Extending from the Core Paradigm
Technologies developed from the dynamic electrode paradigm.
Flexible Stretchable Electrodes
Soft and stretchable electrodes for EMG and other applications, already commercially deployed.
Hair-Penetrating Electrodes
Viscoelastic hair-penetrating electrodes, developed in cooperation with leading international companies.
