This is a huge step forward for restoring normalcy for paralyzed people.����һ���Ӵ����ǰ������һ�󲽻ָ���Ϊ̱�����ˡ�

This technology, I presume, may be put to other uses like reading the mind of a criminal.����������Ʋ⣬���ܻ���������;�������Ŀ�еķ��

Currently however the process is pretty hardwired.����Ŀǰ�Ľ�����൱Ӳ��

Mr Nagle's device, called BrainGate, consists of nearly 100 hair-thin electrodes implanted a millimetre deep into part of the motor cortex of his brain that controls movement.��Աnagle���豸����ν��braingate ����ɽ�100��ͷ�����缫ֲ��һ���ף����뵽���ֵ��˶�Ƥ����Ĵ��Կ����˶���
