Connexus® Brain-Computer Interface
Recording individual brain signals that turn thought into action.
Communication is a fundamental human need. The inability to express yourself with family and friends or request basic needs makes living difficult. For people with motor conditions caused by ALS, spinal cord injury, or stroke, speaking or using the computer may be impossible.
Connexus enables motor-impaired people to communicate again and to independently use a computer by translating neural signals into synthesized speech, text, and cursor control.
A category-defining BCI
Paradromics combined advanced neuroscience with medical device expertise to create Connexus, leaping beyond 30 years of brain-computer interface (BCI) research.
Built for long-term medical use, Connexus is the first high-data rate BCI designed to deliver high performance for the user.
- Communication at natural speeds
- Replication of complex mouse and keyboard hand actions
ADVANCEDNEUROTECHNOLOGY
Our cortical module packs sophisticated
neurotechnology into
a tiny package that can only be fabricated in the Paradromics' foundry.
Cosmetically-invisible cortical module has clear advantages
Proven materials
Built from metals common in medical implants, including a titanium alloy body and platinum-iridium electrodes
Direct access to individual brain signals
With 421 micro electrodes located next to the neurons, patented on-chip processing records massive amounts of data
Longevity
Biocompatible materials and a fully implantable format enable Connexus to last a user’s lifetime
Brain friendly
The Connexus electrodes are miniaturized to smaller than 40 microns, each thinner than a hair
