First “Microwave Brain” Chip Merges Ultrafast Data and Wireless Signals

Researchers have built the first “microwave brain” chip capable of processing both ultrafast data and wireless communication signals at once. By harnessing analog, nonlinear microwave physics instead of conventional digital circuitry, the chip can decode radio signals, track radar targets, and classify high-speed data streams in real time.

“Mind-Reading” Tech Decodes Inner Speech With Up to 74% Accuracy

Scientists have, for the first time, decoded inner speech—silent thoughts of words—on command using brain-computer interface technology, achieving up to 74% accuracy. By recording neural activity from participants with severe paralysis, the team found that inner speech and attempted speech share overlapping brain activity patterns, though inner speech signals are weaker.
