Scientists have deciphered the brain signals associated with handwriting. This is an Inside Science story. A man paralyzed below the neck can imagine writing by hand and, with the help of artificial ...

Two microelectrode arrays in the “hand area” of the brain measure neural activity. A recurrent neural network (RNN) then converts the signals into probabilities for each character. These probabilities ...

Would you believe that a paralyzed man can write again? Through spectacular neuroscience, the new text-to-thought method made it possible for this man to text 90 characters every minute. This is the ...

I find it funny that only one of the styles (#4) is what I would consider "handwriting". I think you'd call it "cursive"? The others are a form of "typewriting" that some of my mates developed in ...

TechCrunch’s John Biggs has an interesting piece today about the OLPC 2.0, eBooks, and Tablet PCs. ““A laptop is an interactive tool. An ebook, even if it’s just a glorified, dual screen laptop, is a ...

In the computer age, it might seem as though proper penmanship is becoming less important with each passing day. Yet sloppy handwriting can hurt students' academic performance, from their class grades ...

My handwriting (although not neat) is now a font on my computer. It took 10 minutes and now I have a custom font to use in e-mails, scrapbooking projects or Web projects Here's what you do -Go here to ...

FRANKFURT—Harald Geisler wants to make you as brilliant as Albert Einstein. Or at least let you write like him. Or at least write in his handwriting. Mr. Geisler, a typographer here, is one of a ...

Researchers have, for the first time, decoded the neural signals associated with writing letters, then displayed typed versions of these letters in real time. They hope their invention could one day ...

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), also known as brain machine interface (BMIs), convert brain activity into outputs that enables lost or impaired functions such as movement or speech. BCIs have been ...
