BCI: Are Consumers Ready for Mind-Reading Technology?
Technology which can interpret our thoughts and control our electronic devices have long been the stuff of sci-fi movies. But did you know there has already been decades worth of research demonstrating our ability to achieve this in the real world? These 'brain-computer interfaces can measured and decode neural signals and translate them into intended actions or speech.
In this webinar, IDTechEx will breakdown the latest on the commercialization of this technology and the opportunities in the emerging brain computer interface market. Specifically, this webinar will focus on the question 'Are consumers ready for mind-reading technology?'. The following will be covered:
- Introduction to brain computer interfacing (BCI)
- The need for better assistive technology solutions
- The wider competition for next generation human machine interfaces (HMIs)
- Conclusions and outlook for invasive vs. non-invasive approaches
More details and twenty-year market forecasts can be found in IDTechEx's comprehensive report "Brain Computer Interfaces 2025-2045: Technologies, Players, Forecasts". This report reveals an evolving opportunity for both non-invasive and invasive technologies across the next twenty years, with the overall brain computer interface market forecast to grow to over US$1.6bn by 2045. This research includes over 20 company profiles including coverage of Neuralink and Blackrock Neurotech. This report leverages IDTechEx's decades of experience researching healthcare and consumer electronics markets. There is an analysis of the opportunities within assistive technology markets, as well as the broader wearable technology markets, specifically the augmented and virtual reality headset market.
