This research led by our collaborators at the University of Birmingham (UK) introduces a novel and effective brain computer interface (BCI) model using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), a noninvasive alternative to modern day BCIs. BCIs can be used to connect individual's brains with computers in order to restore speech, movement, and a sense of normality to those affected by a neurological injury or disorder.
