Insightful. Thank you for this excellent article highlighting how crucial a 'deep learning first approach' is for the practicl and ethical scalability of non-invasive BCI technologies. Govil's emphasis on AI processing over hardware, inspired by advancements in fields like autonomous driving, truly pinpoints the path to widespread, equitable access for those who need these interfaces most.
Super interesting topic Naveen, thanks for putting this together!
As you point out, there has been more and more talks around software platforms being instrumental in facilitating neurotechnology. I read about Sam Hosovsky and uCat working on VR interface as a layer for BCI companies which was fascinating and resonates with what you shared here.
To your other point about Tech Titans entering the space to speed up availability, in the hearing health care space we've seen Apple start out with tentative steps into assistive functionality and apps to support hard of hearing patients, to now 5+ years later introducing a full OTC like hearing aid functionality into their air pods. The Tech Titans are definitely seeking out the health care space.
Brilliant. Govil's insight that deep learning is the true diferentiator for neurotech mas adoption, not just better sensors, is spot on. This deep learning first approach for non-invasive BCI has incredible potential for accessibility and quality of life improvements, especially for diverse groups of users.
