A new array of brain sensors can record electrical signals directly from the surface of the human brain in record-breaking detail. The new brain sensors feature densely packed grids of either 1,024 or 2,048 embedded electrocorticography (ECoG) sensors. They are more flexible and 100 times thinner than the ECoG grids used in the clinic. If approved for clinical use, these new sensors would offer neurosurgeons brain-signal information directly from the surface of the brain's cortex in 100 times higher resolution than what is available today.
A team led by electrical engineers at the University of California San Diego reported the new brain sensors in a paper published by the journal Science Translational Medicine.
