"Translating Brainwaves: The Future of Thought-Based Communication"

TL;DR Summary
Researchers at Duke University have developed a speech prosthetic that can translate brain signals into spoken words, offering hope for individuals with speech-impairing neurological disorders. The device uses high-density sensors and machine learning to convert brain activity related to speech into actual words. In initial trials, the device achieved a 40% accuracy in decoding spoken data. The team is also working on developing a cordless version of the device for greater user freedom. While there is still progress to be made, this technology shows promise in helping individuals regain the ability to communicate through a brain-computer interface.
