What We’ve Got Here Is Failure To Communicate
Frank Willett, a Stanford postdoc who decoded imagined handwriting; Sergey Stavisky, a Stanford postdoc specializing in neural decoding; Vikash Gilja, UCSD neural engineering professor; and Beata Jarosiewicz, senior neuroscientist with BrainGate experience. They explore calibration and closed-loop control, handwriting-based thought-to-text breakthroughs, motor cortex organization beyond the simple homunculus, and tradeoffs between handwriting and speech-decoding approaches.
