Paralysed Man Moves Legs Using Brain-Reading Device, University of California, Irvine Study
A paralysed man has regained some control over his legs using a device that reads his brain, scientists say.
Brainwaves were interpreted by a computer, which then controlled the electrical stimulation of his leg muscles.
The US study, in the Journal of Neuroengineering and Rehabilitation, showed he was able to walk just under four metres with support.
