A paralysed woman has been able to speak via a brain to computer interface. The interface isn't perfect yet - words were only correct 72% of the time, but the speed is incredible. Previously, using eye movement tracking, the user (Ann) was getting 14 words a minute. The new interface was generating text at 78 words a minute!

The short soundbite 40 seconds into this video of Professor Robert Knight talking about his new helmet design is a really clear illustration of how subconcussive and mild traumatic brain injuries can still have an effect.

youtube.com/watch?v=hflnlZ7d9K

"The brain is a very soft structure, it almost has the structure of a Jell-o ... The inside of the skull is actually repleat with bony ridges, and these bony ridges, when there's force to the skull and the brain starts bouncing around, produce all kinds of damage"

More info on the helmet design here brainguard.com/science-team/

Someone in the comments points out that its principle of rotational shock absorption is the same as the MIPS system, and the WaveCel design, compared here wavecel.cdn.prismic.io/wavecel
