China is continuing to develop its brain-computer interface or BCI technology with several use cases already in action.
At Beijing Tiantan Hospital, a BCI consultation and assessment clinic has served more than 1,600 patients since opening a year ago.
People like this person who suffered spinal cord injury from a car accident.
After undergoing a successful BCI implant earlier this year, he can now grasp a wooden block with the help of a pneumatic glove.
BCI's are also reshaping sensory perception.
In another scenario, a BCI interface converts images captured by an external camera into electrical signals through electrodes implanted in the visual cortex of a person's brain.
The brain is stimulated to form light perception and visual awareness, essentially allowing blind people to "see" light and shadow outlines.
In 2026, BCIs were included in China's government work report for the first time as one of the six major future industries to be cultivated and developed.
