What is a BCI?


CAUTION—Investigational device. Limited by Federal (or United States) law to investigational use.

Think. Connect.

The Synchron BCI system is designed to measure electrical brain activity corresponding with a person’s intention to move a body part, such as their arm, regardless of the body’s ability to move. This signal is then converted into a digital action, such as a click or scroll, on a smartphone, tablet, or computer.

Join our community-centered registry to learn how Synchron’s BCI is designed and developed, and how it may provide benefit to people with limited mobility.

New advancements are designed to allow people with motor impairment to use their thoughts to control digital devices and complete tasks of daily living.


From answering texts and emails to accessing banking and other online services, BCI represents an exciting frontier for persons with disability and their families.

Synchron invites everyone who shares our commitment and passion — including people with motor impairment, caregivers, healthcare providers, advocacy organizations and allies — to strengthen and grow our community dedicated to this important medical mission.
