Neuralink recently demonstrated the successful use of its N1 chip — a brain-computer interface (BCI) — in the first human participant. This 64-probe device has 1,024 electrodes and can provide data on how the human brain works. The electrodes connect directly with an individual’s neurons, providing detailed insight into how brainwave signals operate. However, this…
STMicroelectronics offers new hybrid sensor for full interior vehicle monitoring
As advanced automotive markets start to mandate driver-monitoring systems (DMS), STMicroelectronics (ST) is equipping carmakers with the required technologies. While DMS promises greater road safety by assessing driver alertness, ST’s next-generation dual-image sensor monitors the full vehicle interior covering the driver and all passengers. ST’s new image sensor is enabling new applications including passenger safety-belt…
