Abstract:

Brain-Computer Interface (BCI), as a transformative technology, achieves the assistance, enhancement, and restoration of human physiological functions by establishing communication and control channels directly between the brain and external devices. In recent years, with the rapid development of fields such as neuroscience and artificial intelligence, BCI technology is gradually moving from the laboratory to clinical applications and commercialization. This paper systematically reviews the classification, development trends, and current industrial development status of BCI technology, and makes predictions on future trends. At the technical level, significant progress has been made in both the communication and movement BCIs, and the therapeutic BCIs, including innovation in non-invasive and invasive technologies. In terms of industrial development, governments around the world have launched brain plan strategic planning to guide BCI’s development direction. At the same time, investment and financing activities are becoming increasingly active, and the layout of the industrial chain is constantly improving. It is expected that a number of BCI industry clusters and excellent enterprises will emerge in the future, promoting the accelerated development of the industry. BCI technology is expected to be widely applied in fields such as medical rehabilitation, education, and industry, reshaping the paradigm of human-computer interaction.
