Researchers from the University of Zurich’s Robotics and Perception Group have proven that this does not need to be the case by keeping a quadcopter flying with only three motors. A quadcopter ...

According to the team’s results, the BrainGate array wired directly to motor neurons offered a “sixfold improvement” on the ...

The new version is called chAIR, and is electric-powered. The flying machine is lifted by 76 Multistar Elite quadcopter motors. Control is passed through 5 KK 2.1 quadcopter controllers.

The authors believe that to restore highly functional fine motor control, electrodes need to be placed closer to the neurons. The study notes a sixfold improvement in the user's quadcopter flight ...
