Disruptive B-CRATOS approach

We are thrilled to share with you a short teaser about B-CRATOS!

Electrode engineers are pushing channel count and density of modern implantable electrodes by orders of magnitude, but today’s BCI systems are unprepared to handle this volume of data.  Current day implantable neural interfaces already sacrifice both the quantity and quality of data collected, largely due to constraints on wireless data transmission, due to reliance on technologies such as Bluetooth or inductive coupling.  Additionally, users of these devices often risk surgical complications or infection due to the implanted wires and batteries needed to transmit data and provide sufficient power.

The B-CRATOS neural bypass platform technologies look to address these challenges to enable future BCI to unleash the full power of the user’s brain power.  Utilizing the novel B-CRATOS in-body and off-body wireless technologies, a BCI system can now capture and transmit BIG DATA neural recordings, effectively leveraging high density electrode technologies and capturing fine-grained changes in neural activity.  And as a result, future BCI users will not only be able to “point and click”, but take advantage of the most effective algorithms to control complex prosthetics, decode speech, or meet other everyday needs.  Detection routines for closed-loop stimulation devices will not be limited to monitoring biomarkers on a small handful of channels at low sampling rates.  And critically, B-CRATOS technologies reduce the need for implanted wires and bulky batteries, which promotes user safety, system longevity, and ultimately adoption of the devices to make a positive impact on human health and quality of life.
