Intelligence over Invasiveness
"hello"
- /h/ (as in hat)
- /ə/ ('uh' in about)
- /l/ (as in leg)
- /oʊ/ (as in go)
Our words are built from fundamental sounds called phonemes (English has 44).
Every time you intend to speak, your brain generates a specific spatial electrical pattern for each phoneme.
Our device measures these patterns safely from outside the skull. Learn more about our subscalp solution
Think of these as the brain's "speech QR codes", a unique scannable pattern for every sound.
Our AI algorithms decode these patterns.
The signal attenuation challenge: The skull naturally blurs the brain's electrical patterns, acting like a frosted glass window.
To overcome the blurring, our decoder first generates a real-time probability stream for all 44 phonemes.
Then we use language models, which understand the relationships between phonemes, to refine the decoded probabilities.
Next, multimodal AI further refines the output, using real-time context from the physical surroundings.
Our AI solves the de-blurring challenge, achieving high-performance speech decoding from a safe and reliable neural interface. Learn about the company building it
